How much Forklift Training do I require?
My forklift training starts with approx. 2 days including assessment with small groups. From this point I can gauge the amount of training required for each student as a rule the theory is often harder than the Practical. This is a closed book written assessment on your knowledge with approx. 60 questions and some maths, a verbal assessment can be offered.
For persons that have held an expired LF licence or been operating a forklift for years with good communication skills and can retain new information = 1 – 2 days For persons that have worked within a forklift working environment and reminded of safety rules with good communication skills (read/ writing / understanding) and have had some experience with forklifts, remember verbal assessment offered = 2 days with some home study.
Persons with no car experience or with learning issues, understanding English may require from 3 – 5 days sometimes exceeding this timeframe price includes up to 5 days of training with one assessment.
Note: All High Risk Work (HRW) assessments must be completed in English written or verbal and comply with the conditions set out by Safework NSW.
