What is Forklift Training? Being responsible for driving a forklift is a serious task
and it is important that you know all of the latest regulations. In industrial, logistical and manufacturing industries, these trucks are used on a regular basis
to help move products around sites. Without fully training drivers, these
industries would struggle and there is an increased risk of injuries and
fatalities in a workplace.
The HSE (Health and Safety Executive) outlines that around
8,000 workplace accidents a year are caused by forklifts. This is a shocking
figure and accounts for 25% of all accidents. As well as making
a site safe, forklift training courses cover much more. It gives operators
skills in controlling cargo, checking equipment, and manoeuvring correctly and
safely.
Abrasive Wheels Training When it comes to this training, this is ideal for those who
want to build skills and knowledge of the safe fitting of abrasive wheels. The
course covers all of the latest regulations and guidance on use and fitting,
ensuring that your staff are up to date with the details they need to know. The
Health and Safety at Work Act requires any person working in this field to have
appropriate training and it is the responsibility of a business owner to ensure
this is completed.
Some of the aspects covered by this will be wheel storage
and mounting, effects of silica dust and hand arm vibration on health, control
measures, as well as abrasive wheel specifications and types.
