In this career, you can work at a warehouse, airport, rail or truck depot, manufacturing facility, or another facility with storage or shipping operations. Although your daily schedule may vary considerably based on the type of facility, your duties are similar.

Hi Lo Drivers, also known as forklift operators, are professionals trained to operate industrial trucks used for lifting and transporting materials in warehouses, factories, and other settings. Their primary responsibility is to safely move goods using forklifts, also called 'hi-los,' which are designed to handle heavy loads. Hi Lo Drivers are essential for efficient warehouse operations, ensuring that products are stored and retrieved safely and quickly. They must follow safety protocols and often require certification or training to operate forklifts legally.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Hi Lo Driver, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Hi Lo Driver, you need proficiency in operating forklifts and similar industrial vehicles, typically backed by a high school diploma and forklift operation certification.

Attention to detail, good communication, and time management are key soft skills that enhance efficiency and safety. These skills and qualifications are vital to ensure safe material handling, minimize workplace accidents, and maintain smooth warehouse operations.
