Overview

Articulated fork lift truck safety is extremely important. Whilst articulated fork lift trucks are extremely useful for lifting and handling materials whilst reducing manual handling they can also pose significant risk to operators, staff, contractors, visitors, materials and buildings.

If you add into this that fork lift trucks are often operated in confined or restricted spaces such as warehouses, then you can see why they often appear in industrial incident statistics.

For the most part, many accidents are caused by inadequate operator training as well as poorly maintained equipment.

This online e-learning articulated forklift truck health and safety training course is designed to give a basic awareness and understanding of forklift truck operations to help prevent accidents.

It is an essential course for any organisation that uses, owns or hires forklift trucks.

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
