Lift Truck Training
A lot of industries make use of powered industrial trucks for material handling. In the recycling industry, internal combustion powered forklifts are popular. Lift truck operation requires well trained operators. Training is a requirement within North America, and for good reason. A forklift can cause personal injury or serious damage to property if not used safely. A loaded forklift can weight three times as much as a car. Lift trucks are accountable for many industrial accidents, either as the secondary or the primary source of the accident. Reports of fatalities or injuries involving pedestrians or operators are all very commonplace.

Training Requirement
Employers must develop and implement a training program for operators based on four factors: the general principles of safe truck operation, the types of vehicles being used in the workplace, the particular hazards of the workplace and the general safety requirements, based on OSHA. Training includes both practical and formal components. At the completion of the training, operators have to pass an assessment showing they have the ability to operate the truck properly. OSHA also requires that powered industrial truck operators must be trained in certain specific subject matters which is applicable to safely operating a lift truck.
