The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) is the UK government agency responsible for regulating the use of forklifts. The HSE requires that all forklift operators have a valid license before they can operate a forklift.
To obtain a UK forklift license, you must pass a theory test and a practical test. The theory test covers topics such as forklift safety, forklift operation, and the law. The practical test assesses your ability to operate a forklift safely and efficiently.
Once you have passed both the theory test and the practical test, you will be issued with a UK forklift license. This license will be valid for five years.
If you want to operate a forklift in the UK, you must ensure that you hold a valid UK forklift license. Operating a forklift without a valid license is a criminal offence.
