Manual Lifting Safety Presentation

Educate your employees on the proper methods of lifting heavy loads with this Manual Lifting Safety Presentation.

The Safety Presentation can be given in about 15 minutes, and will help reduce on-the-job injuries by informing your staff about:

• the meaning of manual handling,
• the types of manual handling injuries,
• special emphasis on back injuries,
• the Four Principles of Lifting,
• proper methods of carrying and setting down heavy loads,
• alternatives to lifting.

The presentation includes an Assessment Questionnaire to be completed by each employee afterwards, to assess what they have learned from the presentation.

This Manual Lifting Safety Presentation was developed by Safelogic Consulting Services, an OHS specialist, and is provided in MS Word format.
