Need to know more about manual handling in the printing industry?
Do you run a printing business or work in one? Are you struggling with manual handling assessments, or do you need help reducing the risks from lifting and carrying? If so, come along to Gloucestershire County Cricket Club in Bristol where the Health and Safety Commission (HSC) is holding an open meeting of its Printing Industry Advisory Committee (PIAC) on Thursday, 11 November 2004 at 10.30 am. There you will hear why ill-health from manual handling is a problem for the printing industry, be able to watch a video highlighting the most common types of injuries to printers and how to avoid them, see a demonstration of the new Manual Handling Assessment (MAC) Tool and have the opportunity to work through an assessment. You will also have the opportunity to share best practice and be able to discuss practical solutions with HSE’s manual handling experts and fellow printers. Attendance is free, but places are limited, those wishing to attend should contact Wendie Drammeh on 0113 283 4397
