WHS Induction: Lifting & Carrying

Improper lifting methods can not only result in severe back strains and sprains, with potential life-altering consequences for individuals, but significant financial implications for organisations due to decreased productivity and compensation claims. This Lifting and Carrying induction module offers a straightforward and user-friendly approach for individuals engaged in lifting and carrying tasks. Once the course is completed, you will have learnt what you should think about prior to lifting and carrying anything, safe lifting techniques for when you do need to lift an item, and how to carry out a dual lift. This course is one part of a 50 part WHS Induction series aimed at new inductees and existing workers.
