Forklift and Materials Handling Training

CSS Worksafe provides forklift and materials handling training for operators who move, lift and transport loads on site, from counterbalance and reach trucks to pallet trucks, tow tugs and trailer towing.

Our courses are designed to help organisations meet their legal obligations while giving operators the knowledge and practical skills to handle vehicles and loads safely and efficiently.

Training can be delivered at a CSS Worksafe training centre or at your own premises, providing flexibility to suit your operational requirements.

Practical, Operator-Focused Training

The range covers the full spread of materials handling equipment, including counterbalance and reach forklift trucks, pallet trucks, tow tugs, tractor and trailer towing, and related site safety training such as spill response.
