What Is Manual Handling Training?
Manual Handling Training focuses on teaching workers the correct techniques for lifting, carrying, pushing, pulling, and positioning loads safely. The primary aim is to reduce:
- Back injuries
- Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs)
- Joint strain and fatigue
- Long-term physical injuries
As per GWO and CESL guidelines, the training emphasizes the internationally accepted TILE Principle, which helps workers assess risks before handling any load:
- T – Task: Nature and frequency of the task
- I – Individual: Physical capability and training
- L – Load: Weight, size, and stability
- E – Environment: Space, flooring, and surroundings
This structured approach enables safer decision-making during manual handling activities.
