This training is an off the shelf training programme that can be used for a wide range of basic administrative roles that have simple manual handing duties.

This training is an off the shelf training programme that can be tailored for more specific roles that have common tasks.

Level 3 – Tailored package for Hazardous Manual Roles

Worker Health Programmes have gained popularity in recent years to assist in a range of issues, such as absenteeism, chronic disease management and injury reduction.

These types of programmes are an effective method of having a positive influence on the general health of employees, therefore impacting on the incidence, and magnitude of workplace injury and affecting positively employee morale, productivity and absenteeism.
