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 maneuvering correctly and safely.
