Manual handling Risk Asssessment

Enables supervisors and managers to carry out risk assessments.

Introduction

Employers and the self employed have a legal duty to assess health and safety risks. Anyone carrying out a risk assessment needs to have the necessary knowledge and skills. This qualification ensures that supervisors and managers have the necessary depth of understanding to enable them to carry out risk assessments.

Duration

The duration of the course is 7 hours. We usually aim to start the course at 9.00am and therefore taking into account time for refreshment and lunch breaks, the course usually finishes around 5.30pm. We are able to deliver these courses, often at short notice, to companies, organisations and groups of individuals at any time. We have no problems fitting in with existing work shift patterns and are happy to teach these courses early morning, late evening or overnight if required!
