Experienced
Operators to be Refreshed There is now a strong guide line to provide refresher training after set intervals, as even trained and experienced lift-truck operators need to be re-assessed from time to time, to ensure that they continue to operate lift trucks safely. This assessment, which should form part of a firm’s normal monitoring procedure, and be formally time-tabled, to ensure that it is done at suggested regular intervals indicating when and what type of further training may be needed. In addition to routine safety monitoring, re-assessment might be appropriate where operators have not used trucks for some time, are occasional users, appear to have developed unsafe working practices, have had an accident or near miss, or there is a change in their working practices or environment. Employers are advised to have a central recording system for training records and this should include re-assessment in safety training using these records. Employers can, of course, decide that automatic retraining after a set period of time is the best way of ensuring that employees are adequately trained but, where this approach is adopted, it will still be necessary to monitor performance in case re-training is required before the set period ends. The guiding principle is that employers need to maintain the competence of operators to use lift trucks safely through a laid down, formal process of monitoring and assessment. When the Workplace transport safety (Employers' guide) was issued it stated a gap of 3-5 years should be considered as a recommendation when an operators driving skills may need to be assessed. It is also recommended for operators who are coming back to driving after a lay off period, or have not driven for a while, or just need reminding of safe driving practices attends this course.
