More Manual Handling FAQs for London

What is the maximum weight I can legally lift in the UK?

There is no single legal maximum weight. The HSE recommends assessing each lifting task individually based on factors including the load weight, shape, grip, frequency, posture, and the individual worker's capability. General guidelines suggest males should not regularly lift more than 25kg and females not more than 16kg without mechanical assistance.

Do office workers in London need manual handling training?

Yes, if they handle loads as part of their work. This includes moving boxes of paper, office equipment, filing cabinets, or furniture. Even light loads lifted with poor technique can cause injury over time.

Can I train my London team all at once?

Yes! We offer group training packages for London businesses. Contact us for team pricing and we can set up accounts for all your staff with tracking and reporting for managers.

Is there a assessment required for manual handling?

The HSE recommends both theoretical and practical training. Our online course covers all theoretical requirements. Some London employers choose to follow up with on-site practical demonstrations for specific tasks. Our certificate confirms completion of the theoretical training component.
