There is no expiry date for this certificate, however you may want to refresh the course periodically. The timescale for a refresh depends on the type of course that is being taken and the nature of your business. Ideally, the refresh regularity should be based on a thorough risk assessment of your business and tailored to the unique needs of your organisation and customers (if you are unsure how to complete a risk assessment, you can learn more by completing our Risk Assessment Awareness course).
If you are looking for a general rule for refresh training, every 12-18 months is good practice for the courses that Learn Q offer (we will also email you a reminder when you approach the recommended refresh date).

In order to ensure that you are safely lifting whilst you are at work you need to keep the load that you are lifting as close to your body as possible. If the load is not even, then you need to keep the heaviest side next to your body.
You should always avoid twisting your back, or leaning sideways and you should always bend and lift from your legs rather than lifting with your back.
In order to safely lift something, there are four main steps that you need to take.
The first is to keep a wide base as this will maximise the support that you have. You then need to squat down, bending at the hips and the knees only. You need to lift slowly, straightening your hips and knees, then you need to keep the load close to your body, aiming for the level of your belly button.
