This class teaches basic forklift operating procedures with an emphasis on universal safety and procedures. It is designed to meet required OSHA safety training requirements in the US as specified in 29 CFR 1910.178*. It includes procedures and theories applicable to most propane and electric forklift trucks designed for use on hard surfaces. It does NOT address additional safety concerns when operating large or high load capacity forklifts, forklifts equipped with non-standard forks and fork extenders, or forklifts on unpaved/soft surfaces.

 

Once you finish this course, a printable Certificate of Completion will be available for download. The course can be completed in 3 hours or less.

 

Important: Per OSHA rules, this class requires a trainer-evaluator at the student’s facility to conduct the “hands-on” performance evaluations for each student, in order to become a certified forklift operator. The on-line portion of this course is not sufficient for certification. An operator must complete “hands on” training as needed, and then pass a performance evaluation in the workplace on the particular forklift(s) to be operated. These “hands-on” performance evaluation worksheets are available as a package within the course.

 

*Some states have state-level forklift safety regulations in addition to the federal OSHA regulations, which may affect operator training. Employers should determine if state regulations affect forklift safety training, and if so, they must supplement this training as needed.
