Hi all, could anyone recommend useful software tool for task specific Manual handling risk assessment. Is the HSE UK free RAPP tool worth using? Thank you

Depends what your task is for an appropriate assessment tool, it would be wrong of us to guess.

Hi Chrissie

I agree entirely with Roundtuit.

However, if you describe the task(s) you might get a better response.

In essence, HSE produced RAPP to help those assessing risks where some control measures are relatively easy to decide on. Certainly not a substitute for e.g. ergonomic assessment of a complex task that poses significant risks.
