MANUAL HANDLING HEALTH & SAFETY INFO
3 To report any injuries, strains or illnesses you suffer as a result of doing your job.
The health and safety of all its workers is paramount to Top Job Recruitment Limited.
b. To take reasonable care not to put other people - fellow employees and members of the public - at risk.
c. To cooperate with your employer, making sure that you get proper training and that you understand and follow the company’s health and safety policy/policies.
More than a third of all “over-three-day” injuries reported each year to the enforcing authorities are caused by manual handling – the transporting or supporting of loads by hand or by bodily force.
5 If you drive or operate machinery, to tell your employer if you take medication that makes you drowsy.
4 To tell your employer if something happens that might affect your ability to work (e.g. becoming pregnant or suffering an injury).
a. Avoid wearing jewellery or loose clothing and keep long hair tucked out of the way.
Whilst it is the client’s responsibility, under the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974, to provide a safe and healthy working environment, Top Job Recruitment has a duty of care to its temporary workers to ensure that they are aware of health and safety issues.
Clients will have their own Health and Safety policies but most of the following general safety rules will be in place and must be observed by all workers
To take reasonable care of your own health and safety.
There is no such thing as a completely ‘safe’ manual handling operation, but working within the following guidelines will cut the risk and reduce the likelihood of injury.
Manual handling will be eliminated where possible with the use of mechanical lifting equipment; if not possible the risk of injury will be reduced with the use of handling aids such as pallet trucks, sack barrows and trolleys etc.
