The ?India Forklift Operator of the Year?, Srinivasa ND has beaten tough competition from across three continents to reach the Grand Finals of the International Forklift Operator of the Year. Srinivasa, who works at Toyota Kirloskar Motor, had the chance to travel to the UK to compete in the International Forklift Operator of the Year after winning the ?India Forklift Operator of the Year? competition hosted by Praguna in 2015. Ten contestants each day competed in four heats and Srinivasa made it through to the Grand Final alongside 11 other forklift drivers.

?This competition once again showed that Srinivasa has a high level of knowledge, skill and understanding of efficient and safe forklift operation,? said Saurabh Goyal, CEO of ThinkLink Learning, which, under the brand Praguna, runs a wide range of programmes in skilling and human capability development in logistics and is RTITB?s exclusive, accredited partner delivering forklift training across India. 

The award is hosted by UK-based RTITB, the globally recognised body for workplace transport training, and aims to celebrate the skills and knowledge of forklift drivers while promoting safety and encouraging all operators to achieve accuracy, control and efficiency.
