Each year, tens of thousands of forklift-related injuries occur in U.S. workplaces. Many employees are injured when lift trucks are inadvertently driven off loading docks or when lifts fall between docks and unsecured trailers. Workers may also be struck by a lift truck or fall while standing on elevated pallets and tines. In addition to personal injuries, many incidents result in significant property damage, including damage to overhead sprinklers, racks, pipes, walls, and machinery. Unfortunately, most of these incidents can be traced back to a lack of safe operating procedures, weak enforcement of safety rules, and insufficient or inadequate training. The IASHEP Forklift “Train-the-Trainer” Refresher Course is a comprehensive two-day program designed to address these issues. Participants learn how to legally establish and manage an effective “in-house” forklift training program. The course emphasizes current OSHA training regulations, their impact on your organization, and the steps required to remain compliant with the latest standards. This refresher course must be completed every three years to maintain the credential.
