Manual Handling Training for Pool Environment—2024

Working in around pools can be physically demanding, with employees required to lift and move heavy objects regularly. Without the proper knowledge and techniques, this task can lead to accidents and injuries. According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), overexertion and bodily reactions are among the common causes of workplace injuries. The good news is that the risk of these injuries can be mitigated with proper training.

“I spent forty plus years training people how to do Manual Handling in various countries, in many environments, in numerous different places. While in the wilds of Papua New Guinea I helped hundreds of people unloading shipping containers manually then decanting them into boxes suitable for small aircraft transport with efficiency and safety".

Here in Australia I have run courses for both heavy vehicle drivers, warehouse supervisors and bus drivers. The goal being to minimise injury to staff and to also mitigate Workcover claims. These courses include Manual Handling of numerous types of heavy objects including people (though there is a separate course on manual handling people).
