Instruction for using elevated working platforms, forklifts and telescopic forklifts
The objective of instruction is safety-oriented behaviour.
Instruction enables you to pass on our expertise and our experience to your employees, making your company more successful.
The instruction covers two main topics:
- The dangers that employees are exposed to during their work and
- The safety measures for avoiding dangers
Advantages of instruction:
- Your employees learn how to assess risks and therefore work with fewer mistakes
- You fulfil the legal obligations for instruction.
- The employees know which protective equipment and safety measures are prescribed.
- Your employees can work safely and smoothly and are therefore more productive.
- Your employees are more motivated, as they see that your health and safety are important in the company.
- Your work procedures are more reliable, as the employees are better informed.
Regularly repeated instruction is necessary because everybody forgets what they have learned after a while. Just try to remember what your leaned in school, for example.
Experience shows that we tend to forget a lot, even under favourable conditions. Especially when no accidents occur, the dangers and safety measures are quickly forgotten and repeated instruction is required to refresh our memories.

Price overview:
The instruction takes about half a day and costs 280,- CHF.
