Training in Fraserburgh: what to expect

South Harbour estate and seafood processors — wet floors, pallet-jack interaction and cold-store FLT operation are the recurring risk themes the Broch teams want covered.
Fraserburgh is a working harbour town, and the lifting and handling work here reflects that: quaysides, fish processing and cold stores, engineering and fabrication units, and the wind and marine servicing work that has grown alongside them. Quayside work means edges, weather and shared traffic; cold stores mean confined aisles and slippery floors. Training is run around landings and shift changes so the site keeps running, and the assessment uses your own machines on those exact surfaces.
The local operating challenge
Cold-store FLT work in the Broch comes with wet floors, pallet-jack interaction and rapid temperature shifts — courses here lean heavily on traffic discipline, footwear and load-stability awareness.
