Manual Handling bulk training lets Irish businesses certify an entire workforce online - quickly, affordably and with full records. Instead of booking a trainer for a day, you enrol your team, they complete on their own devices, and you track every certificate from one dashboard. This guide explains how it works.
It is the simplest way to keep a growing team trained, compliant and injury-aware as people join and roles change.

Reduced per-seat pricing
Bulk pricing brings the per-person cost below the EUR 35 single-seat rate, and there is no trainer day-rate or venue to pay for. See course pricing.
Audit-ready records
Every dated certificate is stored centrally, ready to drop into a safety file for HSA inspections, client audits or insurance reviews.
What this online course does and does not replace
This online course supports awareness and understanding of safe manual handling principles, correct lifting technique, common hazards and your responsibilities at work. You finish with a recognised Manual Handling Certificate you can show an employer.
Employers may still need to provide task-specific training, supervision and a written manual handling risk assessment for the actual loads and tasks in your workplace. Workers should always follow their employer's procedures, on-site manual handling assessments and internal safety rules. This course does not automatically replace workplace-specific training or practical instruction where these are required by the role.
