Pallet trucks are everywhere: shop floors, loading bays, warehouses, hospitals, and back-of-house areas. But what do operators actually need in terms of certification or training to use them legally and safely? This guide covers hand (manual) pallet trucks, powered pallet trucks (PPTs), and ride-on/stand-on variants.

Material handling equipment plays a vital role in countless industries, from warehousing and logistics to construction and manufacturing. However, no matter how advanced or well-maintained your equipment is, its effectiveness and safety ultimately come down to one key factor — the operator. Ensuring your staff are properly trained isn’t just a compliance box to tick; it’s a smart business decision that protects your people, your assets, and your bottom line.
