Target Audience: People who are required to carry out manual handling tasks as part of their work and their managers / supervisors.

This module has been designed to help people to understand the requirements of the Manual Handling Regulations. This cartoon-based presentation consists of 5 main sections, the task, the load, the working environment, the individual and "other factors". Using cartoons, the trainer explains the practicalities of the legislation covering the key areas of the task, the loads, the working environment, individual capability and other factors. He addresses the different components of lifting, handling, twisting, etc., in a way that the audience will be entertained and simultaneously receive a strong preventative educational message designed to encourage them to stop and think before lifting and twisting.
