The instructor shall:
Present and explain risks from working in awkward postures (such as: when the torso is twisted or bent; in combination with loads and distance away from the body) and how to mitigate musculoskeletal injuries from working in awkward postures
Facilitate an exercise covering working in awkward postures and how to mitigate musculoskeletal injuries, e.g. when working in restricted spaces, working from a ladder and during rescue scenarios
Observe the participant’s performance and give constructive feedback throughout the participant’s practice with a focus on:
a.
using safe techniques and appropriate planning
b. reducing manual handling by using suitable handling aids and work positions where possible
c.
the use of manual handling principles
The participants shall:
Take active part in exercises focusing on how to mitigate musculoskeletal injuries from working in awkward postures and ask questions when in doubt of safe manual handling techniques and principles
Apply TILE principle when planning the manual handling operation
Reflect on the received feedback from performing manual handling when working in awkward postures in the best possible way
