The OSHA Rule 1910.178 States:

“Training and evaluation shall be conducted by a person with the knowledge, training and experience to train powered industrial truck operators and evaluate their competence”

Why Is It Important To Comply?

It is the law! And, it’s the right thing to do. Eliminating hazards in the workplace is the right thing to do and it makes good business sense. In addition to OSHA compliance, other benefits can include; less chance of employee injury, reduced workers compensation rates, lower forklift maintenance costs and less product damage.
