In the past safe manual handling training was all about how to lift things correctly. However current practice is to minimize the risk of manual handling injury through a three step process: 1. Identify hazardous manual handling tasks; 2. Assess risks involved in hazardous tasks; 3. Risk control - measures to reduce or eliminate risks. With the aid of an ergonomist and a physiotherapist, this program demonstrates how to make a workplace safer using some basic principles and procedures.
