Sideloader Forklift Training

Description

This staff Sideloader forklift training course is done on-site at your business premises. Training starts off around a laptop for the health & safety presentation, followed by a video. Then onto the practical part & assessment. Ideally, we require a room for the theory part, and some empty pallets for the practical part.

On successful completion, candidates will receive a certificate of training. This complies with UK law, and meets the requirements for insurance purposes. The HSE recommends refresher trainining is done within a 5 year period.

Do not worry too much about delays and staff being pulled away etc. as this is expected when doing on-site training. In terms of space, we work with whatever is available.
