What is the CSCS Manual Handling Test?

The manual handling test is basically an Operatives CITB Health, Safety, and Environment Test, one of the three types of CITB tests. The test covers 16 core knowledge areas, including health and safety, manual handling, fire extinguishers, etc. There are 50 questions related to these 16 topics, and manual handling is one of them. It means only a few questions will be related to manual handling, while other questions will be from other topics. 

Like the Operatives CITB HS&E Test, the CSCS manual handling test is an MCQ-based test with 50 questions that you must complete in 45 minutes. The test pass mark for the manual handling test is 90% (45/50 questions must be correctly answered).
