Licence To Operate A Forklift Truck

TLILIC0003 – Licence To Operate A Forklift Truck

This course specifies the skills and knowledge to operate a forklift truck safely. This course requires a person operating a forklift truck to:
  • Plan the work
  • Conduct routine checks
  • Shift loads in a safe manner
  • Safely shut down and secure equipment after completing operations

Do I need a forklift licence?

The short answer – yes. It is necessary to hold a licence to operate a forklift. However, if you are “in training” you are permitted to operate a forklift without a licence until such time as you are competent enough to be assessed. You must be within sight and sound of a licenced operator at all times.
