Forklift Safety
"Forklift Safety" Program ... updated to satisfy OSHA's current training requirements... reviews how to inspect forklift equipment prior to operation, safe operating procedures, forklift stability, and how to recognize potential problem situations. Forklifts are indispensable in many companies. They are rugged, powerful tools that save time, money and effort. But the same qualities that make forklifts so helpful can also make them dangerous. The annual injury toll from powered industrial trucks includes over 100 fatalities and over 35,000 serious injuries. When used incorrectly, or if forklifts are not properly maintained, they can inflict injury and costly damage. The Program includes information on equipment inspection, surveying the work area, safe operating procedures, recognizing potential problems, forklift stability and "center of gravity", tip-overs, equipment maintenance, and more. The Program includes Lecture, Video, Employee Handouts, Employee Quiz, and Employee Training Certificates.
