The Manual Handling Assessment Chart is a crucial workplace safety document required under Philippine occupational safety and health legislation, particularly aligned with Republic Act No. 11058 and DOLE Department Order No. 02-02 on ergonomics. This assessment tool is specifically designed to evaluate tasks involving manual handling operations, providing a systematic approach to identifying and controlling associated risks. It becomes necessary when organizations need to assess new manual handling tasks, review existing operations, or respond to reported discomfort or injuries. The document incorporates scoring systems for different risk factors, photographic evidence, control measures, and action plans, serving as both a risk assessment tool and a reference document for workplace safety improvements. Its implementation is particularly critical in industries where workers regularly engage in lifting, carrying, pushing, or pulling activities.
