Manual handling injuries proposals: a quality approach

Abstract

Examines new government regulations concerning the manual handling of loads, and their implications for management. Argues that implementation should begin with directors of the company, and outlineshow instructions should be passed to successively lower levels of management. Considers the cost to the organization of ignoring the regulations, and finally offers ways to promote an injury‐free attitude in the workplace.
