Why safe handling matters locally
From the distribution hubs around Ballymount and the Airport Logistics Park to busy hospital wards, city-centre hotels and constant construction and fit-out work, Dublin runs on physical labour. That puts safe manual handling at the centre of daily life for tens of thousands of workers across the capital. We work with learners across the city centre, Tallaght, Swords, Blanchardstown and Dún Laoghaire and the wider Dublin area.

What this online course does and does not replace
This online course supports awareness and understanding of safe manual handling principles, correct lifting technique, common hazards and your responsibilities at work. You finish with a recognised Manual Handling Certificate you can show an employer.
Employers may still need to provide task-specific training, supervision and a written manual handling risk assessment for the actual loads and tasks in your workplace. Workers should always follow their employer's procedures, on-site manual handling assessments and internal safety rules. This course does not automatically replace workplace-specific training or practical instruction where these are required by the role.
