Employers in Cork are subject to the same legal requirements as those anywhere in Ireland under the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work (General Application) Regulations 2007. Whether you operate a busy distribution warehouse in Little Island, a nursing home in Bishopstown, a construction site in Cork Docklands, or a retail outlet on Patrick Street, your staff who move, lift, carry or transport loads must receive appropriate manual handling training.
Our Cork manual handling courses are half-day programmes delivered by an experienced instructor. The course covers the theory behind safe manual handling — including relevant HSA legislation, spinal anatomy, biomechanics, and risk assessment — followed by a substantial practical component where participants practise and receive direct feedback on their technique. All participants complete a written and practical assessment, with certificates issued to those who pass.
On-site delivery is particularly popular with Cork's larger employers who want to train multiple cohorts with minimal operational disruption. Our trainers travel to Cork and can deliver sessions across multiple days if your workforce size requires it. We cover all Cork city and county areas including Little Island, Ballincollig, Douglas, Bishopstown, Carrigaline, Mallow, Midleton, and Fermoy.
Pharmaceutical and food manufacturers in Cork will find the course content directly applicable to their warehouse and production environments. Healthcare organisations benefit from the patient-handling context we can incorporate into the practical sessions. Whatever your sector, Collier Training Solutions ensures your Cork team leaves with the confidence and competence to handle loads safely every day.
