TLID0017 Operate container side lifter

This nationally recognised unit covers the skills and knowledge required to safely operate a container side lifter in accordance with workplace procedures and relevant regulatory requirements. Participants will learn how to conduct pre-operational checks, position vehicles and equipment appropriately, lift and place containers using the side lifter, and complete post-operational procedures. The unit focuses on safety, load handling, communication, and hazard management in environments such as ports, freight terminals, and transport yards. TLID0017 is ideal for those working in transport and logistics roles involving the loading and unloading of shipping containers. All activities are carried out under limited supervision and must align with industry standards and site-specific protocols.
