Drivers engage in manual handling all the time. Even if they don’t ever interact with the load, just putting shopping in the lorry is lifting, handling and working at height!

Operators have a duty to ensure that drivers know how to carry out manual handling tasks in a safe manner. The Driver CPC module on Manual Handing gives the theoretical knowledge to carry out these tasks properly.

After 10 years in the haulage industry, rising to running my own small fleet of vehicles, I left the cab behind to focus on training the next generation of drivers. I now run RPS Driven Media, give driving lessons as a DVSA Approved Driving Instructor and relate my experience of road haulage in Driver CPC courses throughout the year.
