Our testimonials include

• "Manual handling is a high use activity at James Hardie distribution where back strains and injury are a major concern for us. In order to be proactive, I have worked with Kate from StaySafe Handling to customize a safety program to raise safety awareness, safety participation and staff engagement. Kate customized a program for us and delivered it over 12 months and results have seen zero injuries in our work environment. Thank you StaySafe."

  Our injury statistics reflect a significant improvement.

• "The programme has given our employees the skills to assess the manual handling risks they face and develop safe handling techniques.
  We have been able to implement this programme with minimal interruption to production.

  It is early days yet but we are already starting to see some positive results in reducing manual handling injuries."
