Overview

One of the main causes of injury in the workplace, next to slips, trips and falls, is manual handling. To comply with HSE law, all professionals who are responsible for operating and lifting heavy machinery or equipment must have a clear understanding of the safety measures that need to be in place to ensure full competency in the workplace.

The Manual Handling Level 2 course covers heavy lifting technique, hazard analysis, common workplace injuries, and much more. Through case studies and audio-visual content, you will learn how to use the correct form when lifting and will be guided through the risk assessment process, exploring the different types of manual handling in-depth. You will also learn how to report a manual handling incident, and what to do in the case of an emergency.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
