I think all trainers know that training and real life have never been close friends. How many of us drive our cars the way we had to to pass the driving test ? What we provide is basic operator training - the test is to show that the new operator can operate to a basic safe standard. When we train to the L117 (acop) and use the national ABF test sheet we have to mark a penalty every time the hydraulics are used without applying the parking brake or neutralising the transmition - we have absolutely no control over what happens once the operator is released into the work place. The responsibility over that rests firmly with the employer.
