DVLA D4 Medicals by GMC Registered Doctors
The national regulator for workplace health and safety, HSE, does not have any current legislation regarding the need of forklift drivers to undergo a medical. However, your employer may request this to determine your fitness to operate this machinery as per company standard.
For most work involving lift trucks, a standard of fitness equivalent to that for Group 1 entitlement (ordinary driving licence holders) is appropriate. However, activities such as working in a particularly demanding environment, working at night or transporting hazardous waste would require assessment in line with Group 2 entitlement (heavy goods vehicle licence holders).
Employers may choose to screen potential operators in accordance with Group 2 licences whereby a medical examination is required every 5yrs from the age of 45 and every years from the age of 65 (in line with licence renewal periods).
