The regulations relating to equipment selection, usage and operator training in the workplace

Regulation 9, Training state:

- All persons using work equipment MUST be trained including the methods of using equipment, any risks and precautions to be taken

- Supervisors and managers MUST be trained including the methods of using equipment, any risks and precautions to be taken

On successful completion of your training course you will be issued with a "Certificate of Training" and normally registered with the awarding body as a competent operator. This certification proves that the holder has attended an accredited training course and achieved the minimum standards set out by the awarding body.

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) recommend the all training is refreshed every three to five years.

Firstly, ALL operators and supervisors MUST have adequate training for each type of equipment / truck type you use in the workplace.

Then, you MUST carryout and record Pre-Use checks at the start of each day before the equipment is used.

Finally, each lift truck is required by law to have a LOLER certificate of Thorough Examination. This examination is required to be completed every 12 months unless it is used to lift people when the examination period is reduced to every 6 months.

Lift truck operators should be over the minimum school leaving age (MSLA), except in ports where they must be at least 18 years of age.
