Take advantage of training

“Even if individuals operating lifting equipment and forklift attachments are fully competent, on-site training can be really effective in ensuring that they are used in the safest and most effective way possible,” explained Dave Manuel, technical sales director at Contact Attachments.

According to Dave, training not only allows companies to mitigate any potential hazards further down the line, but it ensures that staff – no matter what level of competency or experience they have – continue to undertake professional development and are up-to-date with the latest legislations surrounding equipment.

“We have a dedicated team of ITSSAR and NPORS accredited trainers who can offer 90-minute training sessions to small groups anywhere in the UK.”
