Stop the Strain
How Smart Manual Handling Risk Assessments Protect Your People and Business
Every year, thousands of workers across the UK suffer from musculoskeletal injuries caused by poor manual handling. Whether lifting, lowering, pushing, or pulling, these everyday actions remain one of the leading causes of workplace injury – and one of the most preventable.
iProtectU’s Manual Handling Risk Assessment Software empowers organisations to assess, manage, and reduce manual handling risks through automation, insight, and control.
The Hidden Cost of Manual Handling Injuries
Digitise manual handling assessments
Manual handling injuries don’t just impact individuals; they hit productivity, morale, and compliance. Traditional assessment methods – paper forms, spreadsheets, and disjointed systems are slow, inconsistent, and difficult to monitor across multiple sites.
With iProtectU manual handling risk software, you can digitise manual handling assessments, streamline approval workflows, and instantly flag high-risk activities.
