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.

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
