5 1 Introduction This document tells you what you need to do to deliver the qualifications: Area Who are the qualifications for? What do the qualifications cover? What opportunities for progression are there? Description The City & Guilds qualifications for assisting and moving individuals in social care are based on the National Back Exchange (NBE) standards and reflect current best practice in the area. These qualifications aim to develop knowledge and skills for a range of individuals involved in assisting and moving of people in a variety of Health and Social Care settings. Employers have responsibilities for the health and safety of their employees. There is a legal requirement to ensure that employees are competent to perform their tasks. The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 places a general duty on employers to "ensure so far as is reasonably practicable, the health, safety and welfare at work of all staff" (Section 2(1)). The completion of the Level 2 Certificate will ensure a competent worker. The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 and The Manual Handling Operations Regulations 1992, (amended 2004), supplement the employers' existing responsibilities with specific duties. The Regulations require that the employer should avoid hazardous manual handling or where not possible to avoid, carry out suitable and sufficient (ergonomic) assessments of the risks, to reduce as far as is reasonably practicable". The completion of the Level 3 Award, combined with an appropriate train the trainer qualification will equip supervisors and managers with the skills to give an effective induction into assisting and moving for their workers. These qualifications provide specialist knowledge in the area of assisting and moving individuals for a range of individuals working in the Health and Social Care.
