Learn how to prevent manual material handling (MMH) injuries at your workplace by developing the skills needed to identify and control risk factors associated with MMH work.
Every workplace includes tasks that involve manual materials handling: lifting, lowering, carrying, pushing, pulling, holding or restraining. When the work exceeds a worker's physical capabilities, however, serious injuries can result.
Learn how to prevent manual material handling (MMH) injuries at your workplace by developing the skills needed to identify and control risk factors associated with MMH work.
This course includes case studies with discussion summaries and other examples to illustrate the concepts, as well as practical tools such as sample forms and checklists. Quizzes throughout the course and an exam help to measure and encourage learning.
Learn lifting techniques, identify risk factors and prevent injuries.
Employers, supervisors and managers, and workers can all benefit from taking this course. Employers will learn how to reduce injuries associated with MMH, while supervisors and managers will learn how to recognize when work may exceed a worker’s physical capacity.
