Forklift operator training in Harare
Counterbalance forklift operation, safety and load handling.
What you train on
Training runs in our working Harare yard on real forklift plant — not a simulator. You start with pre-start checks, controls and site safety, then move onto productive work: counterbalance forklift operation, safety and load handling.
Because JT also takes on demolition, earthworks and plant-hire contracts around Harare, trainees get machine hours alongside operators who work live sites every week.
