Common questions
Is manual handling only about heavy loads?
No. Repetitive light handling, awkward postures and pushing/pulling also matter.
Do I need equipment training as well?
If you use hoists, trolleys or other aids, combine handling technique with the right equipment briefing.
Are these IOSH courses?
No. Certificates are independent professional awards—not IOSH or NEBOSH.
