    Manual Handling

    Uploaded by

    The document provides guidance on safe lifting and handling techniques, including kinetic lifting techniques for different scenarios such as lifting a simple load, lifting sacks from the ground or truck, dual person lifts, lifting oil drums, sheets/boards, and cases studies on best practices for stone laying. The key points are that using proper lifting techniques can reduce injury risks but does not enable lifting more, and safety requires a cultural shift towards not accepting risky practices just because that is how they have always been done.

    Points to remember:

    • Practicing good lifting technique does not enable


    you to lift more than you could before. It means
    that, whatever your individual capabilities, your
    chances of injury are reduced.
    • Good technique is just one of a number of control
    measures, within the hierarchy of control, that
    the employer has to put in place to reduce manual
    handling risks; it is not a panacea.
    • This is about a cultural change, about not
    accepting practices because that’s the way they’ve
    always been done.
