Topics inside this course
Awareness and induction depth — not an accredited occupational qualification.
- Assess task, individual, load and environment
- Keep the load close; don’t twist
- Trolleys and two-person lifts
- Office moves and archive boxes
- Report pain early
Built for the people who take the training
Warehouse, facilities, retail and office staff who lift boxes, water bottles, archive crates or furniture.
What learners leave able to do
- Assess a load before lifting and use mechanical aids where they exist
- Ask for help instead of “just getting it done”
- Report pain early rather than working through it
- Apply the same rules to office moves as to warehouse pallets

Short scored assessment.
Short scored assessment. Awareness only — not a practical lifting sign-off where your risk assessment requires one.
Written for the workplace, not for the statute book alone
Manual-handling injuries are not only a warehouse story. Office moves and water-cooler bottles produce the same damaged backs. This course is the awareness layer: assess, get help, use the aid, stop when it hurts.
TILE (task, individual, load, environment) is taught as a 20-second habit, not as a risk-assessment template for specialists. Supervisors learn that “we’re short-staffed” is how people lift what they should not.
It does not replace practical training where your risk assessment requires it, and it is not physiotherapy. Generate from HSE guidance, Ergonomics Regulations extracts, and your SOP in Kre8AI so the trolleys and weight limits you actually have are named as placeholders or as fact.
Publish as SCORM or HTML. Pair with fatigue and contractor induction where relevant. Re-export when the SOP changes.
Retail and facilities teams usually assign this at induction. Keep it short enough that people finish it before the next delivery.
