Tampa Forklift Safety Training & Certification
Classes
Forklift
Training - OSHA 29 CFR 1910.178
Forklift safety training and certification is mandatory in Tampa
Florida. We come to your Tampa facility and train your forklift operators on your
equipment. Mitigate your risk by
having your employees take a comprehensive safety forklift certification
class.
OSHA mandated that all new forklift operators must be trained & certified, regardless of experience. All
forklift operators in and around the Tampa area; regardless of experience, must be evaluated for competency at
least every three years. The new rules require that forklift safety training be specific to the equipment you
operate (machine specific) and specific to the conditions under which the equipment is operated
(site specific). This course meets 29CFR 1910.178.
Pulse
America offers Tampa area businesses comprehensive forklift safety training and certification program for
experienced and new forklift operators. Our forklift safey training program covers 30 topics and is good for
forklift operators in the manufacturing sector or yard environments.
Our forklift safety training
and certification program teaches students everything from forklift engineering principles & operator safety
rules to forklift maintenance and the importance of daily forklift inspections. This program meets or exceeds
OSHA regulations; each student must pass a written test and forklift performance evaluation as required by
OSHA. Participants receive a student workbook, a wallet card and certificate valid for 3-years (unless void
by having a forklift accident, near miss, is observed driving recklessly, a new type of forklift is introduced
or there is a change in the operating facility).
Reasons
for The OSHA standard
Each year, tens of thousands of injuries related to powered industrial trucks (PIT), or forklifts, occur in US
workplaces. Many employees are injured when forklifts are inadvertently driven off loading docks, forklifts
fall between docks and an unsecured trailer, pedestrians are struck by a forklift, or when people fall while
on elevated pallets and tines.
Most incidents
also involve property damage, including damage to overhead sprinklers, racking, pipes, walls, and machinery.
Unfortunately, most employee injuries and property damage can be attributed to lack of safe operating
procedures, lack of safety-rule enforcement, and insufficient or inadequate training.
