More Manual Handling FAQs for Dublin

What is the maximum weight I can legally lift in Ireland?

There is no single legal maximum weight. The HSA recommends assessing each lifting task individually based on factors including the load weight, shape, grip, frequency, posture, and the individual worker's capability. General guidelines suggest males should not regularly lift more than 25kg and females not more than 16kg without mechanical assistance.

Do office workers in Dublin need manual handling training?

Yes, if they handle loads as part of their work. This includes moving boxes of paper, office equipment, filing cabinets, or furniture. Even light loads lifted with poor technique can cause injury over time.

Can I train my Dublin team all at once?

Yes! We offer group training packages for Dublin businesses. Contact us for team pricing and we can set up accounts for all your staff with tracking and reporting for managers.

Is there a practical component required for manual handling?

The HSA recommends both theoretical and practical training. Our online course covers all theoretical requirements. Some Dublin employers choose to follow up with on-site practical demonstrations for specific tasks. Our certificate confirms completion of the theoretical training component.
