1343 Materials Handling Safety (DVD)
Many employees feel that moving and handling materials that they work with every day is an "ordinary" task, not something that they really need to be concerned about. Yet there are hundreds of thousands of "materials handling" accidents every year... from small splinters, cuts or scrapes... to crushed fingers, hands and feet... even deaths.
This video provides the information needed for safe materials handling, including lifting, mechanical aids, and potential hazards.
The key training points in this video include:
- Types of potential hazards.
- Proper lifting and moving techniques.
- Hand trucks, carts and pallet trucks.
- Mechanical lifting devices.
Support materials to enhance learning include a Facilitator Guide, answers to frequently asked questions (FAQ), and a quiz for documentation.
