Ensuring best practice our NVQs have been specifically developed to meet the demands of the logistics industry. System Training offers the NVQ in Warehousing and Storage at level 2.

Health and Safety

Fork lift truck drivers are responsible for the safe operation of their vehicle within a busy warehousing environment. They need to be fully responsive to the risks and issues relating to health and safety.
