The Manual Handling operations regulations require employers to:

avoid
the need for manual handling operations;
assess
the risk of injury from any hazardous manual handling that carn’t be avoided; and
reduce
the risk of injury from hazardous manual handling, so far as is reasonably practicable.
"Today’s workplace has become heartless and soulless. Employees are seen as units of labour, automatons, functionaries, objects for achieving designated tasks, and as costs to be minimised."
