The Importance of Driver Training

Each year there are over 8000 reported injuries involving lift trucks, causing suffering and sometimes fatality. There is also a heavy cost to business. Even an accident not causing bodily injury can result in damage to trucks, buildings, equipment and goods all affecting the bottom line profitability of your business. Fork lift truck accidents are all too often associated with lack of suitable and sufficient operator training. If you are prosecuted for breach of Health & Safety laws, and it is found that you did not adhere to the relevant provisions of the code, you may receive a substantial fine or imprisonment.
