PALLET TRUCK TRAINING
(A1, A2, A5):
Operator Training
We are committed to providing every operator who uses pedestrian pallet/stacker trucks an excellent standard of training to ensure they feel confident, knowledgeable and safe to operate this common and useful piece of mechanical handling equipment in their working environment.
We offer training that is varied, friendly and engaging and covers all the essentials of operating a pallet or stacker truck whilst following the HSE Approved Code of Practice (ACOP) L117. All of our training stipulates a maximum of 3 delegates per course, with 1 instructor and 1 pallet/stacker truck within a dedicated training area and an available classroom/meeting room throughout the course.
There are 3 variations of the training for you to choose from:
-
Novice (up to 2 days for stacker trucks)
-
Experienced (up to 2 days for stacker trucks)
-
Refresher (1 day)
Novice
This course is aimed at those who have no experience of operating any mechanical handling equipment.
This course gives the operators every opportunity to practice their operating skills, gain confidence and learn the basics of pallet/stacker truck with an emphasis on relevant health and safety legislation.
Experienced
This course is for those operators who are experienced users of the pallet/stacker truck but have never received any formal, certificated training.
The content of the course is the same as a novice but because of their experience it is condensed into less training hours as the operators should not require as much practice time.
Before training commences, we require a declaration from the operator to declare that they are experienced operators who have operated pallet/stacker trucks in the past but with no formal training or certification.
Refresher
This course is for those operators who have received UK certificated pallet/stacker truck training within the last 3-5 years.
It is the employers responsibility to ensure that every operator receives regular training and this course will ensure that those responsibilities are met.
