Training
In the United States as well as Canada, it is

training before being given the responsibility
of using a forklift. Therefore, it is important for
you to receive the proper training, usually from
a qualified trainer or school.

Training to operate a forklift usually involves both written and practical hands-on training.
Forklift safety, basic operation and forklift hazards are taught. As well, training in walk around forklift inspection before starting the machine and filling out the daily log book is needed. Hands-on lessons include driving the forklift and lifting and stacking bins or boxes on pallets.

inventory leadership.
Sometimes, the employer provides additional training when you are hired for the job at hand.
