If you are a member of ABC Invest's
warehouse team you will be given ongoing
training to enable you to work safely.
For desk-based employees ABC Invest
provides monthly workstation assessments.
These ensure you are sitting and working
correctly. Our expert assessors will be able
to provide you with new kit for your
workstation where appropriate.
Irrespective of location every member of
staff must take care if lifting or moving
heavy objects. Information on moving heavy
objects can be found on the noticeboard in
the entrance foyer of each floor.
If you have any questions on manual lifting,
please contact your department's health
and safety representative.
