Workers across Perth’s healthcare, aged care, mining, construction, disability support, warehousing and logistics sectors regularly perform tasks involving lifting, carrying, pushing, pulling and repetitive movements. When these activities are not properly managed, they can expose workers to hazardous manual task risks and contribute to musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), which remain one of Australia’s most common workplace injury categories.

AlertForce’s manual handling training Perth employers and workers rely on provides practical guidance on identifying hazardous manual tasks, recognising workplace risk factors and applying safer handling techniques. Participants learn how repetitive movement, sustained force, awkward postures and vibration can contribute to workplace injuries, along with practical strategies to reduce those risks through effective task design, equipment and safe work procedures.

Aligned with the Safe Work Australia Code of Practice: Hazardous Manual Tasks, this training supports compliance with the WHS Act 2011 (NT) and helps PCBUs meet their duty to manage workplace risks. Whether you are completing training as an individual worker or seeking workforce-wide compliance solutions, our manual handling training courses provide practical knowledge that can be applied across a broad range of Northern Territory workplaces. Employers can also learn more about manual handling training and their legal obligations, while workers new to the topic may find it useful to understand what manual handling training is and explore five reasons why manual handling training matters.

WA Requirement

Under the Work Health and Safety Act 2020 (WA) and associated WHS Regulations, PCBUs must eliminate or minimise risks arising from hazardous manual tasks so far as is reasonably practicable. WorkSafe WA expects employers to identify manual handling hazards, assess associated risks and implement suitable control measures to reduce the likelihood of workplace injuries.

Hazardous manual tasks may involve lifting, lowering, carrying, pushing, pulling, holding or restraining loads where workers are exposed to repetitive movement, sustained force, awkward postures, vibration or high force. Training supports workers in understanding these risks and applying safe work practices that contribute to a safer workplace and improved WHS outcomes.

“Great training organisation. Well organised and good communications. Provided a great trainer for the HSR course.”

Tom Foley

“Did a CPR refresher. Reminded me of the things I'd missed or forgotten about. Got it done and got out. Highly recommend. Of the 10 or so of these I've done, this is the first that actually felt like a useful refresher and not just trying to stay awake to check the boxes.”

Chris Stewart

24 Jul 2026

“The AlertForce course for Enter and Work in Confined Spaces was very comprehensive and informative. John is a very experienced worker and instructor, which enhanced the training experience for all of the class, he answered all our questions from both the health and safety, and legal perspective, and would also use his own real-world experiences to demonstrate the answers. Thank you AlertForce Team and John, I'll recommend your courses to anybody who's looking for training.”

Being the only female in the group I was nervous at first, but everyone was so friendly (I don't think I touched a door once today lol) and welcoming. The instructor (shout out to Craig) was really interesting and friendly and made the course really engaging, time flew by! I 100% recommend these guys and will be going back soon to complete my working at heights certification.”

“Did my Whitecard, Asbestos, Silica, and Working at Heights. All classes were informative, and succinct. The instructors were great, especially John, who did my working safely at heights.”

Liam Shaw

10 Feb 2026

“Excellent course, I'm saying this because unless like most courses that are just plain boring. This course was run By Matt who I think is a great educator, he explains information in a way that's not just educational but also relevant to today's work practices, his insight and depth of knowledge shows his years on both subjects like asbestos and silica and how dangerous both can be, I'm now armed with the knowledge of how to treat these hazards and also how to prevent a problem that can be eliminated, I definitely recommend this course for anybody who wants to learn about asbestos and silica.”

Tazer Long

“Just completed my forklift course with Craig, highly recommend”

Ben Vickers

06 Feb 2026

“I'm really satisfied with the way the class was lead simple and easy to remember for the questions on the theory test. I'm really grateful that I'm given another chance to do train and do the practical test again which I didn't pass on the first time. So that I'm prepared to use the forklift without making mistakes when I do get my licence as well as work using the forklift.”

While manual handling certificates do not have a legislated expiry date, many Western Australian employers recommend refresher training every two years or whenever workplace procedures, equipment, hazards or job responsibilities change. Refresher training helps workers maintain safe manual handling practices and supports employers in meeting their obligations under the Work Health and Safety Act 2020 (WA).
