About the Author

Hi, I’m Paul Bickerton

“I spent forty plus years training people how to do Manual Handling in various countries, in many environments, in numerous different places. While in the wilds of Papua New Guinea I helped hundreds of people unloading shipping containers manually then decanting them into boxes suitable for small aircraft transport with efficiency and safety”.

Here in Australia I have run courses for both heavy vehicle drivers, warehouse supervisors and bus drivers. The goal being to minimise injury to staff and to also mitigate Workcover claims. These courses include Manual Handling of numerous types of heavy objects including people (though there is a separate course on manual handling people).

When it comes to Manual Handling…”I am your man!”
