In particular Manual Handling related injury claims can be notoriously difficult to fight and very expensive to settle, it makes sense to educate all employees who are engaged in Manual Handling operations, the CIEH offers an inexpensive 3 hour course which we can deliver on customer premises or at our fully equipped training centre.
