OSHA estimates that about a million forklifts are used by about 1.5 million employees and that forklift accidents account for 100 deaths and 95,000 injuries each year.  OSHA’s standard on powered industrial trucks has specific requirements for operator training (Title 8, 3668 Cal-OSHA) that requires a combination of formal training (classroom, videos, etc.) with practical instruction, as well as an evaluation and certification process.  The standard specifies a long list of required training topics. Once and operator is trained, a refresher training and evaluation is required least every three years and more often for operators who have a record of accidents or near-hits, new equipment or if work conditions change.  FS&T’s certified forklift training program helps employers reduce the risk of injury, death, or property damage caused by forklift accidents.  This training program is designed to ensure compliance with the OSHA and Cal-OSHA forklift regulations.
