TSA launches AI risk handling
assessment tool The Textile Services Association (TSA) has teamed up with Cardinus, the health, safety and risk management specialists, to give members access to the RiskAI Manual Handling Assessment Tool.
The tool combines artificial intelligence (AI) with recognised methodologies to make manual handling risk assessments quicker, simpler and more consistent, generating a comprehensive risk assessment within minutes.
To introduce the new service, the TSA is hosting a webinar on 24 September, from 10AM to 11.30AM. The event will demonstrate how the app works, explain the assessment options available, and walk through a series of live examples to show how it can be used in real workplace situations. There will also be a live Q&A with experts from Cardinus, giving attendees the opportunity to ask questions and discuss how the tool could support their own organisations.
Emma Kiviniemi Wilson, TSA Managing Director, said: “Health and safety is at the top of the industry’s agenda. The RiskAI Manual Handling Assessment Tool will help members reduce the risk of injuries and improve workplace safety. It is designed to support, rather than replace, professional judgement, saving health and safety teams time so they can focus on implementing improvements, rather than producing paperwork.”
The TSA’s Projects Director, Andrew Glassford, has been heavily involved in the initiative. He added: “The RiskAI App provides a consistent, evidence-based assessment which helps managers, supervisors and health and safety professionals make informed decisions. It allows them to target interventions where they will have the greatest impact and demonstrate a robust approach to managing manual handling risks.”

Andy said: “The chance to build Peartree’s presence in Scotland was a major attraction for me. Peartree already has an established reputation and a strong proposition, so there is considerable scope to introduce the business to a wider Scottish market.
“I have always enjoyed working within family-run businesses and there is a real sense of personal investment and energy at Peartree. My priority now is to develop relationships across our target markets and significantly expand our customer base across Scotland.”
Brad Reames, Managing Director at Peartree Cleaning Services, added: “Scotland is an important market for Peartree and Andy’s appointment gives us dedicated business development expertise on the ground.
“We see significant potential to expand our presence across the region. As we build our customer base, we will invest in our operational teams alongside it ensuring we maintain the standards and service Peartree is known for as we grow.”
