P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Novice Course Details
Who is the P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Novice Course for?
The RTITB accredited P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Novice Training Course is designed for those with no, or very limited, experience of using a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift.
P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Novice Course – Eligibility
The RTITB and Health & Safety Executive (HSE) have set guidance and some eligibility criteria for attending these P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Novice Training Courses.
P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Novice Course – Eligibility Criteria
Experience Level – This P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Novice Course is for those with no, or very limited, experience of using a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift.
Age – To attend this P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Novice Course and operate a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift in the workplace you must be at least school leaving age (16). Please note, subject to a risk assessment, if you are under the age of 18 you may need to be supervised in the workplace when using a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift until you reach the age of 18. In addition, no person under the age of 18 can use a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift on docks, or ports.
Language – This P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Novice Course has multiple classroom-based theory lessons throughout. A written theory test is also mandatory. In addition, the safe use of a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift requires that the operator reads and understands any safety signs, local safety notices, and can thoroughly understand the manufacturer’s operator handbook for a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift.
The practical training aspect of this P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Novice Course, and the mandatory practical test of operating skills, involves continuous verbal instructions that the trainee must be able to understand and act upon in a safe manner.
Therefore, good comprehension of English language and literacy are important for attending this P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Novice Course.
Note – In extreme cases, an accredited translator can be used for the purposes of testing. The chosen translator must not be a candidate on the P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Novice Course and must not alter the sense of any of the answers given by the candidate. If required, please seek legal advice on the use of an accredited translator.
Medical – There is currently no legislation or clear medical guidance available in relation to the specific use of a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift. In general, we would apply the HSE principle that each person’s fitness for operating a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift should be judged individually to ensure that people with disabilities are not disadvantaged but competence in an emergency must always be considered.
We would therefore generally follow the health guidance issued by the DVLA for Group 1 entitlement if the need arises to assess capabilities for operating a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Truck.
Essentially, if you are not, or would not be restricted in obtaining a UK driving licence, then there should be no restrictions in operating a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Truck in normal circumstances.
Note – All trainees are required to sign a medical declaration at the beginning of these P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Novice Courses.
Driving Licence – You do not need a driving licence (car licence) to attend this P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Novice Course, nor do you need a driving licence to operate a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Truck on business premises.

Language – This P2 Pedestrian Experienced Operator Course has multiple classroom-based theory lessons throughout. A written theory test is also mandatory. In addition, the safe use of a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift requires that the operator reads and understands any safety signs, local safety notices, and can thoroughly understand the manufacturer’s operator handbook for a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift.
The practical training aspect of this P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Experienced Operator Course, and the mandatory practical test of operating skills, involves continuous verbal instructions that the trainee must be able to understand and act upon in a safe manner.
Therefore, good comprehension of English language and literacy are important for attending this P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Experienced Operator Course.
Note – In extreme cases, an accredited translator can be used for the purposes of testing. The chosen translator must not be a candidate on the P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Experienced Operator Course and must not alter the sense of any of the answers given by the candidate. If required, please seek legal advice on the use of an accredited translator.
Medical – There is currently no legislation or clear medical guidance available in relation to the specific use of a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift. In general, we would apply the HSE principle that each person’s fitness for operating a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift should be judged individually to ensure that people with disabilities are not disadvantaged but competence in an emergency must always be considered.
We would therefore generally follow the health guidance issued by the DVLA for Group 1 entitlement if the need arises to assess capabilities for operating a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift.
Essentially, if you are not, or would not be restricted in obtaining a UK driving licence, then there should be no restrictions in operating a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift in normal circumstances.
Note – All trainees are required to sign a medical declaration at the beginning of these P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Experienced Operator Courses.
Driving Licence – You do not need a driving licence (car licence) to attend this P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift Experienced Operator Course or to operate a P2 Pedestrian Pivot Steer Forklift on business premises.
