HGV drivers & forklift operators
across the UAE.

Q: Are your forklift operators licensed?

Yes. All forklift and MHE operators are licence-verified before shortlisting. We confirm the licence category (counterbalance, reach truck, order picker, etc.), the issuing authority, and expiry date. Licence copies are available for your site records and insurance documentation.

Q: Do your HGV drivers have UAE licences?

Yes. HGV drivers supplied for UAE operations hold UAE heavy vehicle licences (or internationally-recognised equivalents where applicable). Licence class, category, and expiry are verified before the driver is presented to you.

Q: Can you supply forklift operators for a 3PL warehouse?

Yes. We work with third-party logistics providers across UAE logistics hubs — Jebel Ali, DIC, Dubai South, Sharjah, and Abu Dhabi free zones. Specify your facility, shift pattern, racking type, and equipment brand and we will match operators with relevant exposure.

Vertex supplies licence-verified HGV drivers and forklift operators for logistics, warehousing, and distribution operations across all seven UAE emirates. Workers are sourced from the Indian subcontinent, licence-verified for their specific equipment category, and deployed within 2–4 weeks under full UAE labour compliance.

We supply counterbalance forklift operators, reach truck operators, order pickers, HGV drivers, van drivers, and light vehicle drivers. All equipment operators are licence-verified before shortlisting — we do not deploy unlicensed operators to materials handling roles.

Vetting process

How we verify drivers and operators before deployment

Every worker in this trade goes through a structured pre-deployment assessment. We do not accept self-reported skill levels without verification — for trades where competency directly affects project quality or safety, the assessment is mandatory.

Licence expiry checked — expired or suspended licences not presented
Licence copy provided — available for your site records and insurance requirements
Equipment familiarity — experience with specific MHE brand or configuration confirmed where required
