AI Powered Manual Handling
Manual handling remains one of the largest causes of workplace injury, musculoskeletal ill health, lost time and compensation claims.
Yet manual handling risk assessments are notoriously difficult to complete properly — even when using recognised tools. For many duty holders, applying formal models requires specialist expertise that is rarely available in-house.
Human Focus AI Changes This
AI-Driven Manual Handling Risk Assessment
Our AI-powered ergonomics system enables you to carry out structured, defensible manual handling risk assessments quickly and accurately. We are incorporating leading ergonomics models into one intelligent platform, including:
The system analyses posture, movement, load characteristics and task variables — reducing manual effort while increasing analytical rigour. It’s like having a qualified ergonomist sitting alongside you, guiding the assessment process.
The Result:
Clear identification of higher-risk tasks, prioritised improvements, and robust assessment records you can stand behind.
From Assessment to Task-Specific Manual Handling Training
Research from the Health & Safety Executive shows that generic, off-the-shelf manual handling training alone is not effective. To reduce injury risk, training must be task-specific.
Traditionally, this has been difficult:
Using Human Focus AI, once a risk assessment is complete you can immediately create bespoke task-specific training based on the actual task being performed.
Automatic Personalised Video Coaching at Scale
Learning research consistently shows that workplace behaviour change requires feedback — and the most powerful feedback is visual and video-based.
Our technology now makes automatic personalised video coaching viable at scale.
Employees are prompted to capture short task performance clips as part of routine supervision or training processes. These clips are uploaded to their training account, analysed by AI and compared against your defined gold-standard method.
Elevate Your Training Evidence
Instead of simply demonstrating attendance records or knowledge tests, you can demonstrate actual workplace application — providing stronger evidence in the event of claims or regulatory scrutiny.
Train Your Risk Assessors To Use The AI Tool Effectively
While the AI system makes manual handling risk assessment faster and more structured, organisations still need people who understand how to carry out and interpret these assessments properly.
A Structured Approach to Safety
Used together, the AI system and training support higher quality risk assessments and more effective improvements to manual handling tasks.
