Hi,

It's mostly the same here in Queensland; I've heard some horrendous stories of how some operators got their licences. From 4 hours to 8 hours for operators that have never driven a forklift. As for the price, there are advertisements on the paper ranging from A30 to A$800.
So which price is right?
This is where the managers come into play Do managers look for the most expensive or the cheapest? Do managers ask what type of training will the trainees receive?
They should insist on a structured training plan and ensure the trainer is training the trainees the correct way.
The managers should know what they are getting for their money.
The managers should CARE what they are getting for their money.
But do they????
