Frequently Asked Questions

How often should manual handling be refreshed?

It’s recommended Manual handling refreshers should occur annually, with more frequent updates (e.g., every six months) for high-risk industries or roles.

Regular training ensures employees maintain proper techniques, stay updated on safety procedures, and comply with changing regulations and workplace conditions.

What is Manual Handling?

Manual handling refers to the transporting or supporting of a load by hand or bodily force. It includes activities such as lifting, putting down, pushing, pulling, carrying, or moving loads, objects, or even a person. The type of workplace and job being performed determine the manual tasks relevant.

What Other Qualifications Complement Manual Handling Training?

Manual handling is used in a wide variety of industries. Most notable among these are construction and healthcare.

When it comes to working in construction, no one can work in the industry without first completing white card training. Officially known as CPCWHS1001 Prepare to work safely in the construction industry, this course is essential for anyone looking to begin work on a construction site, or in any workplace where construction may occur.

Skills Training College has a wide range of healthcare courses which suit a variety of needs. Some of these are specialised toward people looking to start a specific career, while others are general yet essential skills that everyone should know. Following is a comprehensive list of relevant courses:

  • Disability Support Course
  • Aged Care Course
  • HLTAID009 Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation
  • HLTAID011 Provide First Aid
  • HLTAID012 Provide First Aid in an education and care setting
Does a Manual Handling Certification Expire?

The answer to this question depends where in Australia you are. In some states and territories this qualification does not expire, and in others a manual handling certificate remains valid for two (2) years. Regardless, Safe Work Australia, the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia, and most organisations recommend manual handling refresher training be retaken once a year to ensure the knowledge this course provides remains second nature.

Why Do I Need Manual Handling Refresher Training?

A manual handling certificate is required to ensure that individuals are trained to safely undertake manual handling tasks in the workplace. Employers may require this certification to ensure compliance with health and safety legislation and to mitigate liability in the event of manual handling-related injuries. Without this certification, there will be certain jobs you simply cannot apply for. Examples include construction workers, certain disability support workers, and nurses.

What Are Some Consequences of Incorrect Manual Handling?

The consequences of performing manual handling tasks incorrectly can be both physical and mental. Some of the most common consequences include:

  1. Physical Ailments: Incorrect manual handling practices can lead to short-term injuries such as cuts, sprains, bruises. They can also cause longer-term problems such as soft tissue injuries, nerve injuries, and long-term musculoskeletal disorders like lower back issues and broken bones.
  2. Mental Health Issues: While not directly caused by manual handling, the risk of injury and accidents can negatively impact employees’ mental health. Long-term conditions may become difficult to manage, affecting mental well-being and potentially leading to stress, depression, or anxiety.
