One question we get asked repeatedly is “How long does a forklift licence last?” – Whilst we do cover this on our Frequently Asked Questions page, we thought we’d go into a bit of detail.
Forklift Licences
A common misconception is that there is no such thing as a Forklift Licence, however, you do receive “certification” as part of a completed professional forklift training programme.
Whilst the certification doesn’t have an expiration date, the time between being certification and re-training, as recommended by the Health and Saftey Excutive (HSE) is a maximum of 3 years.
This is to ensure that the forklift operator’s skills and safety knowledge is kept current and that good driving practices are maintained.
