Is it so?? May we perceive it in the way that a man involved in loading & unloading while standing on vehicular floor requires multidimensional risk assessment other than just manual handling due to slip or falling hazards? Secondly, "a player kicking football or a girl playing hula hoop" are these a type of manual handling? The questions sound somewhat weird..... But got it that way in my mind.
