ABEL Team Achieve Manual Handling Train the Trainer Qualification
We’re delighted to announce that members of the ABEL Occupational Health team have successfully completed Manual Handling Train the Trainer training.
This qualification enables our team to deliver practical manual handling training directly to client employees, helping organisations reduce the risk of workplace injuries and promote safer working practices.
According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), 511,000 workers in Great Britain suffered from a work-related musculoskeletal disorder in 2024/25, resulting in 7.1 million working days lost. Many of these injuries are linked to manual handling activities, making effective training an important part of any workplace health and safety programme.
By completing this qualification, our team can now provide engaging, practical training sessions that help employees:
- Understand safe manual handling principles
- Recognise and reduce workplace risks
- Improve lifting and carrying techniques
- Support a safer and healthier working environmentÂ
This additional capability further strengthens the range of occupational health and wellbeing services available to our clients. If you’d like to discuss manual handling training for your workforce, we’d be delighted to help.
