Incorrect manual handling is responsible for more than a third of all workplace injuries that are reported to authorities each year.

If manual handling is not carried out properly it can have significant consequences on your health (musculoskeletal disorders), mainly if you carry out manual handling operations regularly. A manual handling risk assessment may be in order depending on if your workplace is handling heavy loads.
