These courses enable candidates to demonstrate the safe and efficient operation of Pivot Steer Forklift trucks in the workplace while adhering to the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and understand the risks associated with the use of lift trucks in the workplace. Learners will also be able to carry out pre-use inspections, and appropriate maintenance and learn about reporting procedures.
In our dedicated RTITB-certified Training centre we offer a wide range of RTITB courses for trainees to learn how to safely operate Counterbalance forklift trucks, Reach trucks, and Pivot Steer forklift trucks in our specially designed area that replicates many working environments, such as warehousing, high-level racking, and lorry loading and unloading areas.
Alternatively, our RTITB-certified instructors can visit your workplace to train your staff on the safe use of your own Pivot Sterr ForkLift Equipment in their own working environment.
