Manual Handling and Injury Prevention

Pro-Com has recently launched a manual handling training program for prevention of injury in the workplace that is unlike any other.

More than 6 months in design and development, this state of the art 8-hour course has been built by a team of leading physiotherapists, osteopaths and sports physiologists together with paramedics and experts from the operational healthcare sector to educate staff. It includes a variety of practical exercises designed to fit your environment and the use of electronic workbooks and virtual reality components to enhance learning. The course addresses safety culture and instils organisational team tactics and consistency of approach. The program is offered in both operational and corporate guise and is supported by eLearning options

Three frequently asked questions when planning your program.

Am I able to tailor a training program for my company?

Yes. PCC works closely with the client from the outset to design and build programs that suit the exact operational and workplace challenges faced with attention to the working environment, specific internal policy and with compliance regarding relevant legislation.  This process starts with an online meeting and brief Q&A process and where required, a visit to the workplace and interviews of key staff and finally program build. Once a pilot course is delivered we enter a refinement phase followed by post-delivery participant evaluation.

Are your training programs available in my state/territory?

Yes. PCC deliver training programs all across Australia and even extend to some off-shore locations. Procom has conducted training works in PNG, Nauru and on Christmas Island where our training was visited by the former Prime Minister Scott Morrison.

The PCC training contingent is a highly mobile team and regularly attend to clients in both metro and regional locations around the country, often catering for up to 6 courses per day. The team all possess training kit including IT and will set up in location and venue as provided by the client. Our electronic workbooks run with mobile WIFI to feed participant data at conclusion of training. Virtual reality and gamified training tools are also portable and carried with the team if this is optioned in training.

What do I receive when my training is complete?

A signed certificate of completion for the participant and a post training and participant evaluation report for the client. Participant attendance and evaluation scores are collected at the time of training via QR code.

PCC partners with a registered training organisation to issue nationally recognised units of competency and statements of attainment against its mapped training products should this be required.

Content was appropriate and relevant and can see how I could easily put into practice.

Content was simplified, concise and showed how we shouldn’t over complicate our communication

Gave me a lot of confidence to listen to my gut, or spidey senses and trust those feelings. Also to not put up with unacceptable behaviours and to report incidents without hesitation.

Good balance between theory and practical application and experience.

Training today went really well. In my opinion, the best we have had in the 20 years I’ve been here. It was really relevant to us and we could really relate to it.

Excellent presenters. If I can come and listen to you talk for 4 hours after night duty and still be awake, it just says it all, so thank you!!

Relevant to what we know but explains it and teaches us why it’s important and what style to use.
