Safe Manual Handling in Home Care
Manual handling is any activity that involves lifting, lowering, pushing, pulling, carrying, holding, or moving a person or object by hand or bodily force. In home care, these tasks are part of everyday work, from helping a person reposition in a chair to moving shopping bags from the car. Understanding manual handling hazards is essential to protect both workers and the people they support.
