What Forklift Licence Is Best For Me a LF Or LO License



What Forklift Licence is best for me?

LF Forklift licence or LO Forklift Licence?

We at Absolute Forklift Training are frequently asked about the differences between the LO and LF forklift licences.
A LF Forklift licence is required if you want to operate in a warehouse,factory or yard environment. Operators with LF Licences are required to load or unload freight from trucks,place pallets in racking or just move various types of freight or items from one destination to another.LF is the most popular licence type with many employers seeking applicants for employment with this licence.
With a LF licence you can operate most forklifts except for the LO order picker/turret forklifts.
The (order picker) is the most common type of forklift used in warehouses with high quantities of single products and limited space.A LO order picker elevates the operator up to the freight, the operator uses a harness and would not be scared of heights. So if you want a specialised forklift license to operate within a warehouse for stock / order pickups you should obtain a LO licence.

However, most employers are seeking individuals who have both LF and LO licences, as they operate both forklift types in their warehouses, so if you are yet to find work or your current employer does not require a LO orderpicker then LF forklift licence may be advisable due to its popularity.
