MANUAL HANDLING ASSESSMENT 1 of 2
1. MANUAL HANDLING WORKS ON SITE
Lifting, moving, carrying materials of various shapes and sizes from the work area to either the processing area
or to waste/scrap skips.
Such materials are lifted and moved by operatives at ground or working from an approved safe means of access
as described in the method statement for the works.
2. METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
To comply with the Manual Handling Regulations, the Company has carried out an assessment.
To carry out the assessment, the Company have:
 Identified the manual handling operations undertaken by their employees
 Made an appraisal, as far as is reasonably practicable, of all manual handling operations to determine if
there is a risk of injury to employees.
In addition, assessments based upon criteria defined in HSE publication ‘Manual Handling Assessment
Charts’ (INDG383 – 08/03) – these are detailed separately.
NCC Received
3.1 ASSESSMENT
(a) Task
07/12/2016
Involves lifting, twisting stooping and reaching, to manually support materials being removed from the various
buildings/structures.
The Assessment revealed that the task involves excessive movement i.e. lifting lowering and carrying, a degree
of pushing and pulling is required to free members and sheet material etc.
There is also a possibility of sudden movement of the load which would increase the force of the operative’s body.
In most cases the load can be carried close to the body, however, physical effort is required to complete the task.
The task is not process rated, and there are sufficient rest periods.
(b) Load
Loads may have an estimated weight of up to 25 kg.
Loads may have sharp edges and be potentially damaging in circumstances where contact is made.
Although the load can be bulky and unwieldy, and difficult to grasp, it is unlikely to shift when the lifting operations
are in progress
(c) Working environment

There are no extremes of temperature associated on the working site.
Natural ventilation is produced by the nature of the work.
The lighting is good, and, where necessary, task lighting will be utilised to illuminate both the work areas and
access/egress routes. Inclement weather will produce a slippery working surface.
(d) Operative’s individual capacity

The Assessment revealed that there were no operatives with back injury problems or other complaints that
suggest that the operatives could be in the high injury risk category.
(e) Other Factors

Overalls, weather and wet condition of materials to be carried could hinder an operative in respect of movement
and posture.

MANUAL HANDLING ASSESSMENT 2 of 2
3.2 REDUCTION OF RISK (CONTROL MEASURES)
(a) Task
The task cannot be improved by changing the layout of the workstations – the work layout is imposed by the
building/structure to be demolished.
Space management and the improvement of access/egress can reduce the risks imposed by twisting and
stooping.
Reaching will be minimised by the introduction of access equipment, such as mechanical lifts or working
platforms.
Ensuring that operatives adopt the correct stance reduces the risks associated with pushing and pulling.
Operatives will be trained in lifting techniques, together with good posture techniques.
Physical effort will be reduced by teamwork and splitting the load into manageable members.
(b) Load
Bulky unwieldy loads must be cut into smaller pieces.
Member and sheet materials that are difficult to grasp and materials with sharp edges will be handled by
mechanical means wherever possible.
Abrasive protective gloves will be issued, but are a last resort for handling operations where it is likely that a
sharp edge will be present on the materials to be handled.
Consideration should be given to the provision of mechanical assistance where this is reasonably practicable.
NCC Received
Mechanical assistance involves the use of machines such as telehandlers, 360 excavator equipped with
appropriate attachment.
07/12/2016
(c) Working environment
Task lighting will be used to illuminate the work areas and access/egress routes.
Space constraint can be maximised by an increased awareness of housekeeping and a policy of tidying up
before lifting operations are commenced.
Ensure that satisfactory access and egress routes are available before lifting operations are commenced.
(d) Operative’s individual capacity

There will not be any lifting operations that require unusual strength by operatives.
The operations will be capable of being performed by most fit operatives.
(e) Other Factors

Personal protective equipment should only be used as a last resort, when engineering or other controls do not
prove adequate protection.
Where the wearing of PPE cannot be avoided, consider the risks of manual handling injury.
Considerations may include factors such as:
 Gloves may impair dexterity.
 Overalls may inhibit free movement.
4. CONCLUSION
This assessment provides the employee with information in relation to hazards and risk on the Contract,
The assessment revealed that operatives are exposed to a degree of risk of an injury from manual handling
operations.
Due to the nature of demolition activities it is not possible to totally eliminate such risk. However, implementation
of the control measures detailed will either eliminate or significantly reduce the identified risks, as far as is
reasonably practicable.
Employees’ contribution in the re-design of systems of work will be encouraged.
Control measures detailed in 3.2 are appropriate to reduce the possibility of injury - they are practical steps and
once they have been put in place, they will be periodically reviewed by means of site safety inspections.
This assessment will be periodically reviewed as part of the Company continual improvement process.
Review will also be carried out in the event of new information or changes in legislation.

COSHH Products (Operational Substances)
COSHH products on demolition Sites fall into three categories:
i) Products brought onto site for use by Company personnel
ii) Substances generated as a result of Company processes, eg dust, metal fume
iii) Substances present on site left as contamination/residue resulting from Client processes previous to demolition
activities commencing
Categories i) and ii)
COSHH Assessments are carried out by utilisation of Materials Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) or information provided
by other third parties and review of actual usage/generation on sites by Company personnel.
Providing the control measures listed in the appropriate COSHH Assessment are adhered to, it is considered that
the risk from products is as low as is reasonably practicable.
The assessments are reviewed on an annual basis, as part of the Safety, Health and Environmental process, or
sooner if considered necessary/conditions dictate.
Category iii)
Information is provided by the Client, generally Materials Safety Data Sheets, this will be assessed and appropriate
control measures, dependent upon the hazards presented by the substance(s), will be implemented. These control
measures may include, but not be limited to, selection of methodology, use of personal protective equipment (PPE),
disposal of waste.
In the event of a range of substances spread throughout the Site, a site-wide COSHH Assessment will be carried
out.
MSDS will be obtained, either from the Client or other source(s), and details recorded of location(s) of the
substances, Risk and Safety Phrases and brief details of control measures. Details of this information will be
recorded onto a COSHH Assessment (Site Wide).
Upon completion of information input, the QHSE Advisor or other competent person will carry out a review of the
site-wide assessment to establish suitable methodologies and/or control measures commensurate with the risks
NCC Received
the substances present..
Selection of Methodology, PPE and control measures take cognisance of the hazards presented by such
substances. Selection is made so as to minimise risks to all personnel who may be affected by our works to a level

RISK ASSESSMENTS
The risk assessments have been carried out in accordance with the Management of Health and Safety at Work
Regulations 1999 (Specifically Regulation 3 – Risk Assessment).
The ethos of our risk assessment and generation of safe systems of work is to apply the principles of prevention, as
detailed within the Management of Health & Safety at Work Regulations 1999, Regulation 4 and Schedule 1, and the
Construction (Design & Management) Regulations 2015 Appendix 1.
The first, and most effective, principle of prevention is to avoid the risk by selection of alternative methods.
This is taken into account when carrying out the risk assessments, selecting appropriate methodologies and
generating the safe system of work.
The risk assessments are supplemented by assessments required by other regulations, these include COSHH, manual
handling and personal protective equipment (PPE)
To enable prioritisation the ratings are numeric – the Risk Rating & Category Matrix identifies the scoring
criteria/definitions and the risk hierarchy

Site works have been assessed based on the
exposure limit and action values published in the
Control of Noise at Work Regulations 2005.
(1) The lower exposure action values are—
(a) a daily or weekly personal noise exposure of
Working in 80 dB (A-weighted); and
TRD OPS Noise exposure; (b) a peak sound pressure of 135 dB (C-weighted).

85 dB (A-weighted); and
(b) a peak sound pressure of 137 dB (C-weighted).
(3) The exposure limit values are—
87 dB (A-weighted); and
(b) a peak sound pressure of 140 dB (C-weighted).
Noise levels are based upon BS 5228-1:2009
Tables D.2 Historic sound level data on
demolition, D.3 Historic sound level data on site
preparation, D6 Historic sound level data on
concreting operations and D7 Historic sound
level data on general site activities.
Times are based on average times for the activity

Task 2 – Excavator (D.3 – Ref 40) Task 3 –
Compressor (D.7 – Ref 27) Task 4 – Hand
held petrol driven disc cutter (D.6 – 53)
As the exposure limit is a daily limit and may
vary, it is deemed that the weekly personal
exposure will not exceed the lower exposure
action value.
