Experience Overview
Train your team to lift smart, move safely, and reduce the risk of injury—before poor habits lead to lifelong consequences.
This immersive VR training drops users into a warehouse environment where they’ll experience the real impacts of unsafe manual handling. Trainees learn not just the theory behind proper technique, but how to identify risks, apply control measures, and take proactive steps to protect their physical health.
Manual handling is the leading cause of workplace injuries and compensation claims—and almost always preventable.
Participants engage in high-risk manual handling scenarios where they must:
-
Identify hazardous lifting, carrying, and movement tasks.
-
Learn which musculoskeletal systems are most at risk.
-
Apply safe lifting principles and risk reduction techniques.
-
Use the Hierarchy of Controls to manage manual handling risks.
-
Solve problems in real time to prevent injury and improve site safety.
This hands-on experience builds muscle memory and risk awareness—helping workers build safer habits that protect them every shift, not just during training.
