Lift truck training A B English

The main purpose of undergoing forklift training is to become a safe and risk-conscious forklift operator. After completing the training with passing results, participants receive a forklift certificate that meets the requirements of the Swedish Work Environment Act and the Swedish Work Environment Authority regulations. We recommend updating the forklift training every five years, but the certificate is valid indefinitely.
