Questions employers ask

Do staff really need training for a pallet truck?

Yes. Employers must make sure anyone using work equipment is adequately trained, and powered pallet trucks are a common cause of foot and crush injuries.

Is a ride-on pallet truck covered?

Tell us exactly which trucks you use, walk-behind or ride-on, and we'll make sure the course matches.

How long does it take?

These are some of our shortest courses. The exact length depends on experience and group size.
