Working Together Training Summary:

If moving a load with another person, first talk about what you are going to do and decide who will be in charge of the move. Decide what command the lift will happen (ready, steady lift or after 1-2-3). Make sure you know how heavy the load is and remember that having two people does not double the amount of the weight you can lift.

This course covers general manual handling recommendations laid down by the HSE Manual Handling Regulations 1992, but you MUST check your workplace protocols and practices. Every business conducts its own risk assessments. If in doubt, ask your manager/employer to find out what the exact rules are in your place of work.
