Use this manual handling assessment to plan and review team lift tasks and reduce the risk of musculoskeletal injury. The template is based on the MAC Tool and UK HSE guidance and covers load weight and dimensions, hand distance from the lower back, vertical lift region, torso twisting and sideways bending, postural constraints, grip quality, floor condition, and environmental factors such as temperature and lighting. It also prompts assignment of a person in charge, and checks communication and coordination among team members before completion and sign off.
