If you are interested in becoming an operator on pedestrian counterbalance forklift trucks, or you are an instructor and want to add this to your repertoire of courses you are able to train, call us today to arrange our nearest available date.

A Plymouth based company have been fined £500,000 after falling boxes killed a man at their fish processing location in Plymouth.

22 year old Tomas Suchy was helping clear up a fallen stack of frozen fish boxes when there was another fall of stock which stuck him. The HSE investigated the incident – which happened 2 and ½ years ago, to find there was not a safe system of work or instruction of staff on how pallet should be stored.
Interfish Limited pleaded guilty to beaching Section 2(1) of the Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974, and has to pay £24,800 costs on top of the £500,000 fine.

A man has died after being involved in an accident with a Forklift Truck. The man, thought to be from the Philippines, was a crew member of a boat docked at Easter Ross harbour as is thought to have been using the forklift prior to the accident to transport a container.

The man became trapped underneath the forklift, and the emergency services were called. The HSE are liaising with the police on this matter.

A spokesperson said “Sadly, one man has died as a result of the injuries he sustained. A full investigation has been launched.”
