| | Allforks Driver Training Division specialises in assisting people to obtain their forklift licence/ forklift ticket, and also conducts refresher courses for the licensed driver.
The training division carries a ranking equivalent to TAFE for its training programs, and its trainers are certified to level 4 standard.
As company Directors, Managers, Supervisors are now held accountable for their staffs actions through the Duty of Care & WorkCover legislations, we at Allforks can place emphasise on safety in your workplace. The duty of care legislation and WorkCover suggests correct FORKLIFT training should be part of the normal ongoing training register for staff.
As with all plant and equipment adequate training must be provided under the OH&S act and all personnel using the equipment must be licensed for this equipment. There are substantial fines for unlicensed operators of machinery, untrained operators and unlicensed equipment or attachments used with forklifts.
Allforks can help in all aspects of forklift operations; this includes licensing and training of operators, hire & sales of forklifts and training, hire & sales of attachments.
A forklift trainee must be under the guidance of a licensed operator, who is in eyesight and communication of the forklift operator at all times, the trainee needs to be at least 17 years old, and have a current and up to date log book which must be able to be presented to a Workcover inspector.
Unfortunately forklift licences require the operator to be over 18 years of age, able to speak and understand Basic English.
When driving a forklift you must have your operator’s ticket on the premises, preferably on your person, so it can be presented when asked for by Workcover inspectors.
The Lencrow Group (Allforks Driver Training Division) provides forklift driver training classes with competency-bases assessments, and courses in our specially designed training facilities. Courses are available through each of our branches and may be arranged on your site at a time that suits the needs of your business.
