Manual handling assessments with the weight written down
Manual handling injuries are the most common cause of lost time in the trades, and the assessment that would have prevented them usually says 'lift carefully'. Gaffer records load weight, carry distance, frequency, posture and floor condition — the factors the TILE approach actually asks about.
Replaces a folder of last year's templates with the dates changed. It is the evidence that wins tenders and satisfies insurers, produced as the work happens.
The H&S paperwork gets done because it lives where the work is.
Risk assessments, method statements, permits, toolbox talks, inspections and registers — 39 features covering the records an inspector, a main contractor or an insurer will ask for.
Win tenders that demand evidence, and sleep better knowing the file is complete.
- Load weight in kg, load type and whether the load is unpredictable
- Repetitive flag with frequency per hour
- Carry distance in metres and posture risk rating
- Floor condition, restricted space and temperature extremes
- Individual risk factors with supporting notes
- Assessment and review dates, linked to the job where relevant
Step 04 of the job: on site
The engineer taps "On my way" and the customer gets a text with an arrival window. On site: clock in, photos, the certificate for the job — EICR, Gas Safety, whatever the trade needs — signed on the device. No signal? It syncs later.
Manual handling assessments is one part of that step. The rest of the job — quoting, scheduling, certificates, invoicing and payment — runs in the same system, on the same record. See the whole job →
What does manual handling assessments replace?
For most trade businesses, a folder of last year's templates with the dates changed. It is the evidence that wins tenders and satisfies insurers, produced as the work happens.
Does manual handling assessments work on a phone, and offline?
Yes. The mobile app is offline-first: records created on site are stored on the device and synced automatically, in order, when signal returns. Lofts, plant rooms and rural sites were the design brief.
