Forklift Training
At Lift and Shift, the forklift safety training is structured to meet the needs of both novice and skilled forklift operators. The forklift training includes hands-on and theoretical modules that teach all aspects of forklift operation, from fundamental control to complex operations. Participants in the programme gain knowledge about various types of forklifts, including counterbalance forklifts and reach forklifts, which are widely used for many companies.
The programme also emphasises safety practices, ensuring that all operators understand how to navigate their workplace securely. The course is not only about driving the forklift but also about caring for it. Participants learn daily checks and troubleshooting methods to keep their machines operating efficiently, which is a critical part of the forklift training.

Alongside the forklift operator training, Lift and Shift delivers in-depth workplace first aid training programmes that are essential for workplace compliance. These first aid courses prepare employees to handle a range of emergencies, from small injuries to severe medical emergencies. Trainees learn lifesaving skills, including CPR and how to operate an AED. The skills acquired in these courses enhance the safety preparedness of all team members, complementing the Forklift Training in Bolton.
