Course Aim:

The student should be able to asses the risks associated with manual handling by understanding how repetitive physical tasks can cause injury to the upper body such as sprains, fractures, ligament pain, and bone pain. Based on that, and based on the nature of their work, the student begins to understand the controls for manual handling based on the hierarchy of controls and maintain personal controls such as understanding how to plan the lift and how to use mechanization or lifting equipment to help in decreasing the hazard. Throughout the entire course, the trainer will be taught to stress on the importance of the course objectives to be done correctly, to teach the trainer how to engage with their respective audience or attendees and to stress on practical implication of these objectives, and how to make sure every attendant is keen to avoid manual handling injuries.
