  4. Tanong 4 ng 16

    What is a cumulative handling injury?
    Ipakita ang sagot

    Sagot: B. Harm that builds up over time from repeated handling

    Cumulative disorders come from continuous handling that gradually wears down the musculoskeletal system, for example low back pain.

  5. Tanong 5 ng 16

    Which of these is an acute handling injury?
    Ipakita ang sagot

    Sagot: A. A broken toe after a load slips and falls

    Acute injuries happen suddenly, for example cuts or fractures from an accident. The other options build up over time.

  6. Tanong 6 ng 16

    How do most MSDs develop, according to EU-OSHA?
    Ipakita ang sagot

    Sagot: B. Gradually, usually from several factors

    EU-OSHA says most MSDs develop gradually and usually have several causes acting together.

  7. Tanong 7 ng 16

    Which of these is a physical risk factor for back injury?
    Ipakita ang sagot

    Sagot: A. Lifting while bending and twisting

    Lifting loads, especially while bending or twisting, is one of the physical risk factors EU-OSHA lists.

  8. Tanong 8 ng 16

    Which of these is an organisational or psychosocial risk factor for MSDs?
    Ipakita ang sagot

    Sagot: B. High demands with little control

    EU-OSHA lists high work demands with low autonomy, lack of breaks, long hours and low job satisfaction as organisational and psychosocial risk factors.

  9. Tanong 9 ng 16

    Which of these is an individual risk factor for back problems?
    Ipakita ang sagot

    Sagot: A. A previous history of back problems

    EU-OSHA lists previous back disorders, physical capacity and lack of experience or training as individual factors.

  10. Tanong 10 ng 16

    Why does holding a load away from your body raise the risk of injury?
    Ipakita ang sagot

    Sagot: D. Your muscles and spine have to work harder

    Reaching out with the load needs more muscle force and increases the load on the spine.

  11. Tanong 11 ng 16

    A task has a heavy load, a slippery floor and a fast pace. What does OSHwiki say about a mix like this?
    Ipakita ang sagot

    Many MSDs are caused by which of these?
    Ipakita ang sagot

Ang dapat malaman bago ang pagsusulit

  • Council Directive 90/269/EEC of 29 May 1990 sets the EU minimum requirements for manual handling of loads where there is a risk, particularly of back injury, to workers.
  • Employers must first try to avoid manual handling, for example with mechanical equipment. If it cannot be avoided, they must assess the task and reduce the risk.
  • Workers must be told about the protective measures, get information on the weight of loads where possible, and be trained in correct handling.
  • Under the Framework Directive, safety and health training must take place during working hours and may not be at the workers' expense.
  • EU-OSHA says there is no exact safe weight limit, but 20-25 kg is heavy for most people.
  • In the 2015 European Working Conditions Survey, 33% of workers carried or moved heavy loads for at least a quarter of their working time.
  • MSDs cause almost half of all work absences of three days or more in the EU, and the sooner a problem is managed, the less likely it is to lead to long-term work loss.

Mga madalas itanong

Is this an official or accredited manual handling certificate?

No. When you pass the final assessment you get a PassEveryTest Certificate of Completion, which shows you finished this general awareness course. It is not an accredited qualification or a legally required training certificate.

Does this course replace my employer's manual handling training?

No. Under EU law your employer must train you in correct handling for your own tasks, during working hours and at no cost to you. National laws and your employer's own procedures always apply.

What is the maximum weight I can lift at work in the EU?

EU law does not set one weight limit. EU-OSHA says there is no exact safe limit, but 20-25 kg is heavy for most people. Some countries set their own limits in national law, so check the rules where you work.

What does TILE mean, and is it in the law?

TILE stands for task, individual, load and environment. It is a common memory aid used in training, not a legal term, but it covers the factors listed in the annexes of Directive 90/269/EEC.

How does the final assessment work?

It has 30 questions drawn at random from the course question bank, with a 35-minute time limit. You need 80% to pass, and each attempt gives you a new mix of questions.
