100% Real Verified Reviews
A Word Between Friends
Let's be honest with you. The internet is full of scam training websites and reviews no real customer wrote. That's why we do the opposite. Every review we have comes from a real person who took a real course with us. No fakes. No hidden feedback. They are all on Google Maps, where we can't edit or rewrite them. Be especially careful with scam websites showing reviews that appear to come from platforms such as Reviews.io. Reviews displayed on their own website may be fake, because the website owner can add, edit or fabricate them directly in the site code. Always verify the business on Google Maps instead. Today, we hold the No.1 spot across Ireland, with more real reviews than any other health and safety training company, built on 30 years of real work at honest prices. You don't have to take our word for it. Just tap the Verify us on Google button below and read every review.

Accredited Safety Consultants: Why Choose Irish Manual Handling
Discover why thousands of learners and businesses across Dublin, Cork, Galway, Limerick and all of Ireland trust Irish Manual Handling for their Manual Handling needs. Our Manual Handling Courses deliver quality, flexibility, and a recognised Manual Handling Certificate.
Employers in Ireland, from construction and pharma to healthcare, hospitality, logistics and agriculture, ask for proof of training they can check, not a promise. Accredited Safety Consultants at Irish Manual Handling ends in exactly that: a CPD certified, RoSPA approved certificate with a code anyone can verify, accepted across Ireland, the UK and Europe.
The free Employer Dashboard adds employees by email, assigns each course, shows progress live and stores every certificate with its renewal date. A team in Ireland is trained shift by shift without anyone leaving the workplace, and one invoice covers the whole order.
Training is a legal duty before it is a certificate. Section 10 of the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 asks employers in Ireland to train employees for the hazards of their work, and the courses here are written to HSA guidance so that the certificate at the end stands as the record of that training.
A job rarely needs one certificate. This account keeps them all, from manual handling and manual handling theory to working at heights and abrasive wheels, each with its own renewal date, and adding the next course is a matter of a click when the work changes.
No classroom, no timetable and no travel: the course opens the moment you enrol and runs in the browser on a phone, tablet or computer. Progress is saved automatically, so a course started on a break at work is finished at home the same evening.
When a certificate is needed quickly, online is the short route: enrol, complete the course in one sitting and download the certificate as soon as you pass. Nothing has to be booked and nobody has to wait for a date.
Essential Knowledge
What is Manual Handling?
The training every Irish workplace needs to lift safely, prevent injury, and stay compliant with the law.
Manual Handling refers to any activity that involves lifting, lowering, pushing, pulling, carrying or moving a load by hand or bodily force. Under the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work (General Application) Regulations 2007, Irish employers are legally required to assess manual handling risks and provide appropriate Manual Handling Training to all employees who perform these tasks. The key principles of manual handling include planning the lift, keeping the load close to the body, bending at the knees, avoiding twisting, and using the TILE risk assessment method (Task, Individual, Load, Environment).
Manual handling injuries are among the most common causes of workplace injury in Ireland, accounting for over a third of all injuries reported to the HSA each year. Back injuries, sprains, strains and musculoskeletal disorders can all result from incorrect lifting techniques. Completing a Manual Handling Course is not just a legal requirement. It is essential for protecting your health, preventing injury, and advancing your career.
Manual Handling Training, Irish Legal Requirement
Under the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work (General Application) Regulations 2007, Irish employers must provide Manual Handling Training to all employees whose work involves lifting and moving loads. A recognised Manual Handling Course keeps your workplace compliant and avoids HSA enforcement action and fines.
A Certificate Accredited by QQI
Our Manual Handling Course is QQI accredited, CPD certified and RoSPA approved. Your Manual Handling Certificate is valid for 3 years and recognised by employers across Dublin, Cork, Galway, Limerick, Waterford, Drogheda and all of Ireland, the UK and Europe.
