Manual handling includes activities where you have to lift, lower, push, pull, carry, move, hold or restrain an object.
If performed incorrectly, manual handling can put your employees at risk of injury.
These kinds of injuries are the most significant contributor to occupational injury in Australia, costing our economy approximately $28 billion every year*.
Konekt’s manual handling training empowers your employees to identify hazards and assess manual handling risks within the workplace before they occur.
Konekt offers a range of manual handling services that can be used in isolation or as components of a broader manual handling risk management program.
Our practical and organisation-specific approach is aimed to help protect your employees and business from potential health, compliance and productivity costs.
Our manual handling assessments and training are delivered on-site by our team of allied health professionals across Australia.
Our manual handling assessments are tailored to your business.
Our experienced assessors will observe and determine if effective control measures are in place to reduce the risk of musculoskeletal injury and practical recommendations will be made to help your employees best manage any identified risk.
