What’s Involved
A qualified WHS consultant will attend your workplace to:
- Observe staff performing routine manual tasks in their usual work environment
- Assess the physical demands of each task, including lifting, carrying, pushing, pulling, and posture
- Identify key manual handling risks based on physical stressors, task repetition, and load handling
- Provide a written report outlining identified risks, contributing factors, and recommendations to reduce or eliminate hazards
Our risk assessments are conducted by experienced consultants with qualifications in workplace physiotherapy, ergonomics, and occupational health and safety.
Why Conduct a Manual Handling Risk Assessment?
- Meet your duty of care under WHS legislation
- Prevent workplace injuries before they occur
- Inform training, task design, or equipment upgrades
- Support safe work procedures and return-to-work programs
- Strengthen your organisation’s compliance with WorkSafe standards
