Manual Handling Course Screening Form - Safety-Link

Since manual handling is a major cause of musculoskeletal injury that can be avoided, use these apps to effectively screen in a way that promotes occupational health and safety while reducing manual handling risk. Such questions include: Do you have, or have you had in the past any cardiovascular disease? (i.e. heart problems) Do you have high blood pressure? Do you have diabetes? Do you have back problems? Are you presently taking any medication?

Use such questions as a part of a manual handling risk assessment to mitigate work-related musculoskeletal disorders and other potential manual handling injuries and hazards at work. Use this app as part of pre-employment screening to lessen risk of injury on the job by assessing load-bearing capacity, as well as moving and handling capacity.
