About Forklift Training

Without the correct training, an operator of a forklift will not be safe behind the wheel. According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), a quarter of all accidents in the workplace involve a forklift truck. Even though driving machinery may seem like a simple task, there are many different aspects that need to be considered.

The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 makes training a requirement under law. As a business owner, it is your responsibility to ensure that all drivers on-site have up-to-date experience and have passed any required courses.

A few of the trucks that we work with in Norwich include:

Reach
Order Pickers (Low, Medium and High)
Counterbalance
Powered Pallet
Man-up Narrow Aisle
