Forklift Operator Training
The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health’s (NIOSH) investigations of forklift-related fatalities or injuries conclude that many workers and employers are not aware of the risks of operating a forklift and are not following the regulations set forth by OSHA, census standards, or equipment manufacturer’s guidelines. Reducing the risk of forklift incidents in your operation requires comprehensive worker training, systematic traffic management, a safe work environment, a safe forklift and safe work practices. Forklift certification by OSHA guidelines is mandated in three parts: formal instructional training, practical hands on training and evaluation of performance in the workplace. This course series will comply with OSHA guidelines for formal instructional training.
