Manual Material Handling – Toolbox Talk
One poor lift can cost months off the job. This Manual Material Handling Toolbox Talk helps your crew avoid soft tissue injuries by reinforcing proper lifting, pushing, pulling, and carrying techniques. It’s more than “lift with your legs”—it’s a real-world prevention talk based on ergonomic risk, not guesswork.
Built for construction, warehousing, manufacturing, and field operations, this session highlights how smart habits—not brute strength—keep workers safe.
