About the Course:
Materials Handling Operations are generally responsible for more fatalities, injuries and incidents that any other industrial activity, except perhaps for road traffic accidents. Bad handling can cost millions through damage and waste.

- Preparation to undertake a supervisory management role in the safe and effective operation of a storage or transport operation.

This course is designed for hands-on line supervisors who have a responsibility for materials storage, materials handling and transport operations. Experience could range from ex-storemen with many years experience to newly recruited graduates on management development programmes.

- Forklift Truck (FLT) types
