-
New material handling equipment is introduced; or
-
Two or three years have passed in which there are no operational or equipment changes or near-misses.
OSHA requires evaluation of the operator every three years.
It is a violation of federal law for anyone to operate a forklift who is not properly trained and certified.
This course is applicable to all of your employees regardless of experience level. Topics covered include:
-
All areas of safe operation maintenance

Practical hands-on experience
