Telehandler (Gold Card) Training
Uphire provides Gold Card Training on request at our premises. Onsite training can also be organised for larger groups. Trainers are industry experienced and certified by the Telescopic Handler Association of Australia.
Similar to EWP Licensing, there are High Risk Work Licenses that apply to Telehandlers with a lifting capacity greater than 3 Tonne which are being used with a crane jib lifting attachment.
Telehandler Gold Card Training ensures that operators have been appropriately trained in the use of Telehandlers that do not fall into the category of a High-Risk Work Licence. It is also a common misconception that a forklift licence prepares an operator to use a Telehandler, however Forklifts and Telehandlers have different capabilities and fall under different Australian standards. Operation of a Telehandler requires Telehandler specific training.
