Description

Manual Handling Training

Sandwell Metropolitan Borough "The Council" requires Manual Handling training to be delivered to staff located in various high-risk areas across the council. Most staff will be based in Repairs, Fleet Services, Estate Services, Highways, Grounds Maintenance and Adult Services, therefore, the course needs to fit a wider audience as most sessions will have a mix of delegates from different areas.

Approximately 600 employees require half-day Manual Handling training with a maximum of 15 delegates attending each cohort. This figure will likely change due to business demand or higher priority projects taking precedence. Training must be delivered in a classroom at a Sandwell MBC venue.

The Council will be using the In-tend e-Tendering System for this Procurement exercise, please visit https://in-tendhost.co.uk/sandwellmbc to access the Sandwell MBC In-tend Supplier Portal.
