Manual Handling Assessment Team Lift QSHE 195b

by Alan Saunderson, from the Community

Assess team lifting tasks with the QSHE 195b MAC-based manual handling checklist. Evaluate load dimensions and weight thresholds, hand distance from the back, vertical lift region, torso twisting and bending, postural constraints, grip quality, floor condition, and other environmental factors. Verify team roles, communication, and coordination, and capture site, date, and inspector sign-off. Use it to reduce musculoskeletal risk and support safe, compliant operations.

Manual Handling Assessment Team Lift
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.

MAC Tool Manual Handling Assessment
This MAC Tool manual handling assessment checklist helps teams evaluate risks in lifting, carrying, and team handling tasks in line with HSE guidance. It covers load weight and frequency, hand distance from the lower back, vertical lift regions, torso twisting and asymmetry, postural constraints, grip quality, floor conditions, environmental factors, carry distance, route obstacles, and team communication and coordination. Use the scoring guidance to flag green, amber, or red risk levels and capture suggested actions, comments, photos, and assessor details.

Manual Handling Assessment: Single Person Lift
Use this manual handling assessment template to evaluate single-person lifting and carrying tasks and reduce musculoskeletal disorder risks. Based on the HSE MAC Tool, it guides you to record load weight and frequency, hand distance from the body, vertical lift position, torso twisting and side bending, postural constraints, grip quality, and floor conditions. It also covers environmental factors, carrying distance, asymmetry, obstacles on route, and ladder use. Conclude with inspector details and signatures to document findings and corrective actions.
