OSHA says that only trained and authorized operators are permitted to operate a forklift and it’s the employer’s responsibility to train and authorize them to drive. A refresher course is required every 3 years or after an accident or near miss. How long has it been since you or yours have been instructed on forklift safety? Safety is a choice each individual makes everyday.

We’ve included a checklist in which you can print and rate you or your employee’s performance according to “good,” “fair” or “poor” driving safety.

Have a safe day!
