Fork Truck Driver Training

Fork Lift Truck Safety is essential.  Doing the safe thing costs money but anything spent on safety is money well spent. It can mean reduced waste, more uptime, less equipment damage, lower insurance premiums, higher productivity and lower legal costs.

• vehicle driving

Fork truck Operator Training

The need for expert training of truck operators is pressing. The number of accidents involving serious injury remains too high, The 1974 Health and Safety at Work Act Section 2 (2c) relevant to training of lift truck drivers has resulted in prosecutions being made under the Act.

What the code requires:

1. Employers must ensure that all lift trucks operators are adequately trained or have existing experience.
2. Employers must ensure that operation of all lift trucks is restricted to authorised operators only.
3. All new operators must undergo satisfactory basic training in accordance with the Code from 1st April 1989.

We offer a number of courses on-site or in-house, each designed to meet existing and proposed legislation, on the training operators of counterbalance and reach trucks. All are conducted by experienced instructors who have undergone extensive training in instructional techniques and skills.
