Manual Handling Training for Brisbane Businesses
Manual handling is a critical area of workplace health and safety that should not be overlooked. The consequences of poor technique or unsafe practices can be significant, making it essential to invest in high-quality, expert-led training.
At Corporate Work Health Australia, our Brisbane manual handling training programs are customised to align with your specific tasks, work environment and operational demands—ensuring relevance and real-world application.
Delivered by Experienced Health Professionals
Founded by Wade Brennan and Heath Williams, our organisation is built on a strong clinical foundation. Our team includes physiotherapists, osteopaths, exercise physiologists and other healthcare professionals who bring expert knowledge of injury prevention and workplace health.
This ensures your training is grounded in best practice and tailored to reduce the risk of musculoskeletal injuries affecting the back, joints and limbs.
Practical, Workplace-Based Training
Our training is most effective because it is delivered within your Brisbane workplace. By observing real tasks and environments, we provide hands-on, practical education that allows your team to immediately apply what they learn.
This approach ensures training is relevant, engaging and reflective of actual work conditions—rather than generic, classroom-style learning that may not translate to the job.
We also help identify and correct unsafe habits, whether it’s poor lifting techniques, inefficient workflows or risky equipment use, ensuring safer practices across your workforce.
Ongoing Risk Assessment and Support
Regular manual handling assessments play an important role in maintaining safe work practices. We can support your business with ongoing risk assessments to identify potential hazards and implement effective control measures.
This ensures your workplace continues to evolve with safer systems and processes as your business grows.

Identifying Risks with a Manual Handling Assessment in Brisbane
All businesses have a legal responsibility to provide a safe working environment for their employees. However, without regular reviews and consistent training across your workforce, it’s easy for unsafe practices to develop over time.
At Corporate Work Health Australia, our manual handling assessments help Brisbane businesses gain an objective understanding of their current work practices and identify opportunities for improvement.
We assess manual handling and ergonomic risks specific to your workplace, then develop targeted, practical solutions to reduce exposure to injury and improve overall safety outcomes.
A Brisbane manual handling assessment involves evaluating tasks performed at your workplace or job site, allowing us to deliver customised training programs and, where required, develop instructional or educational videos to address identified risks.
Your team will receive expert guidance and learn best-practice techniques to safely perform manual handling tasks, including lifting, carrying, pushing, pulling and load management. Our goal is to help create safer workplaces while improving comfort, confidence and long-term wellbeing for your employees.
