Reduce your manual handling risk

Manual Handling equipment and lifting solutions such as a mezzanine lift are a must have in any warehouse, factory or workshop.  This type of equipment not only helps you and your staff to operate more efficiently, but also improves health and safety at work too.

Over a third of injuries which cause employees to be absent from work for more than three days are caused by companies neglecting the manual handling legislation.  This figure is according to the statistics released by HSE and local authorities - therefore having the correct manual handling lifts in place in your work environment is essential if you need to move items such as tools, materials, supplies and products between the ground floor and the mezz floor.

The Mezz lift is an affordable, multi-purpose piece of equipment which can be used to transfer loads between floors in compliance with LOLER.  These guidelines advise that anything but a light load should be moved using specialist lifting equipment i.e a mezz lift or a scissor table.  It is recommended that people do not manually handle anything that weighs more than 25kg.

It is possible for just one person to handle a heavy load simply by making use of a mezzanine lift, without having to put their health at risk by manually handling the load.  This equipment removes the need to carry heavy loads up or down stairs, which helps you and your employees to avoid preventable injuries.
