As June comes to a close, the month when our sector recognises National Forklift Safety Day, the United Kingdom’s Association of Industrial Truck Trainers (AITT) has issued a timely reminder of the need to ensure any staff training is fully accredited. 

With more than 100,000 accredited certificates for materials handling equipment training issued in the UK last year, it is clear the need for correct training is reaching some business owners. But not everyone!

The best way to ensure staff are safe at their jobs is for everyone to know the rules of safe operation and to adhere to them. 

Poor training can cost lives and that will aways be simply unacceptable.
