Harvest brings a wave of seasonal workers into heavy, physical jobs, and most start lifting before anyone has shown them how to do it safely. Manual handling injuries are some of the most common on any farm. A half-day course gets your team sorted before they pick up the first crate. Here is a guide for agricultural employers: https://cumbriafiresafetytraining.co.uk/manual-handling-training-agricultural-workers-2/ Book before the season starts.

We run manual handling courses through the summer in Penrith and on-site across Cumbria. Here is why it matters: https://cumbriafiresafetytraining.co.uk/manual-handling-training-cumbria-protecting/ Book before the busy weeks hit.
