In today’s modern world manual handling is involved at all levels of a workplace to some extent. Would not be wrong to say it’s almost unavoidable. Even a simple office work will require stacking boxes onto shelves from time to time. For some professions, it may require heavy objects, people, or animals. Tasks such as lifting, lowering, carrying, pulling, pushing, holding, restraining are considered as manual handling. And the main risk of manual handling is the possibility of developing musculoskeletal disorders (MSD).
