Women and young drivers excel in RTITB competition

摘要

For the first time ever, female forklift operators have qualified for the Grand Finals of the RTITB International Forklift Operator of the Year competition, alongside the youngest competitor yet. At IMHX 2016, Samantha Tyson, who works at PPG in Morley, Leeds, was the overall winner of her heat on Day Two of the competition, which is sponsored by UniCarriers and McCue. Emily White, from System Training in Carlisle, won the Day Three heat, while 18-year-old Thomas Birkbeck, an apprentice engineer for KP Snacks, became the youngest competitor to ever qualify for the next stage of the competition.
