Manual Handling Instructor & DSE Risk Assessment Training

Did you know 30% of all injuries occur in the workplace?

Good manual handling techniques and Display Screen Equipment (DSE) risk assessments are crucial in ensuring staff health and safety and maintaining productivity.

Poor manual handling technique, poor posture and repetitive actions (especially at computer workstations) are thought to be the main causes of work-related musculoskeletal disorders.

The following UK 2016/17 statistics make for grim reading:

  • Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (new or long-standing): 507,000
  • Working days lost due to musculoskeletal disorders: 8.9 million
  • New cases of workers suffering from work-related musculoskeletal disorders: 159,000

How much of an impact would this have on your business?

Improve your health and safety procedures and minimise the risk of staff injuries with a Manual Handling Instructor course and DSE Risk Assessment course.

Training is an investment for success

The aim of the CCNSG Safety Passport Scheme is to ensure a basic knowledge of health and safety for all site personnel to enable them, after appropriate site induction, to work on site more safely with lower risk to themselves and others. National Course is a two day course for basic site safety and is valid for three years from the date of the course. The Renewal Course is designed as a one day refresher course for those who have already passed the CCNSG National Course. This has to be taken within three months of the Safety passport expiry date. If it is not taken within the specified time then the two day CCNSG National Course will have to be retaken.
