OSHA Regulations
OSHA ISSUES NEW REGULATIONS FOR FORKLIFT OPERATORS
December 1, 1998
Are You in Compliance? The Employer is Responsible for OSHA Compliance for all its Lift Truck Operators.
On December 1, 1998, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) published a standard that revised the existing requirements of 29 CFR 1910.178 and issued new requirements to improve the training of powered industrial truck operators.
The standard becomes effective on March 1, 1999 with mandatory compliance by December 1, 1999. This new standard is intended to reduce the number of injuries and deaths that occur as a result of inadequate operator training. The powered industrial truck operator training requirements will apply to all industries except agricultural operations.
1. The employer must evaluate the operators’ performance before allowing any employee to use a vehicle in the workplace, except for training purposes.
2. The employer may designate any qualified employee as Trainer/Evaluator. There are no special or additional “Train the Trainer” requirements.
3. OSHA does not certify, accredit or approve any trainers or training programs for powered industrial trucks. The responsibility for compliance with the requirements of the OSHA standard rests with the employer.
REQUIREMENTS OF THE NEW STANDARD
Who should conduct the training?
Persons with the necessary knowledge, training, and experience to train powered industrial truck operators and evaluate their competence must conduct all training and evaluation.
The OSHA rules state: “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”. This means that any adequately proficient and experienced lift truck operator can become a forklift safety trainer for your company.
This means that OSHA forklift training doesn’t have to come from an expensive 3rd-party training provider, or that you have to spend countless hours and untold budget dollars toward training seminars and special workplace awareness sessions. Known as our “Train the Trainer” program, this specialized forklift training course allows your company to have an in-house expert on-hand, all the time! CertifyMe.net provides all essential forklift certification and forklift training, all at a great price. And best of all, our OSHA forklift certification can be completed at your employees’ convenience.
Outside qualified training organizations can provide evidence that the employee has successfully completed the relevant classroom and practical training. However, each employer must ensure that each powered industrial truck operator is competent to operate a truck safely, as demonstrated by the successful completion of the OSHA forklift training and evaluation.
OSHA forklift training requirements also provide an outline of the topics that must be included in the written, verbal, and practical training. CertifyMe.net has made sure that our affordable program includes all necessary components employees need to successfully and safely operate forklifts. We meet all OSHA requirements, while providing the content we know is both essential and most helpful to aspiring operators, completely accessible online and at your own pace. OSHA never states that operators need to attend an expensive training facility to learn all the essential topics of operating forklifts safely. We’ve made being OSHA-compliant as easy, convenient, and affordable as possible!
GENERAL TRAINING REQUIREMENTS
The new standard requires employers to develop and implement a training program based on the following general principles:
Safe truck operation
• Types of vehicle(s) being used in the workplace
• Hazards of the workplace created by the user of the vehicles
• General safety requirements of the OSHA standard
• The operator’s prior knowledge and skill in operating the vehicle
• The operator’s demonstrated ability to operate a vehicle safely
General requirements for training and evaluation are:
• Formal (lecture, video, interactive computer, etc.) training
• Practical training using demonstrations and exercises
• Employers must certify that each operator has received the training
• Employers must evaluate each operator’s performance at least once every three years
Prior to operating the truck in the workplace, the employer must evaluate the operator’s performance and determine the operator to be competent to operate a powered industrial truck safely. For employees hired before December 1, 1999, training and evaluation must be completed by that date. For employees hired after that date, training must occur before that person is allowed to operate a truck in the workplace.
Refresher training is needed whenever an operator demonstrates a deficiency in the safe operation of the truck, such as:
• The operator is involved in an accident or near-miss incident
• The operator has been observed using the vehicle in an unsafe manner
• An evaluation has determined the need for additional training
• There are workplace changes that can affect vehicle operation
• The operator is assigned to use a different kind of truck
Refresher training is also required at least every three years, even if the operator has not been found operating the forklift unsafely or been involved in an accident.
DEFINITION OF A POWERED INDUSTRIAL TRUCK
Any mobile power-propelled truck used to carry, push, pull, lift, stack or tier materials. Powered industrial trucks can be ridden, or controlled by a walking operator. Earth moving and over the road haulage trucks are not included in the definition. Equipment that was designed to move earth but has been modified to accept forks are also not included.
WHO MUST BE TRAINED?
All persons who will operate a powered industrial truck must be trained and pass an operator evaluation before being allowed to use a vehicle in the workplace.
OSHA states that an employer does not need to retrain an employee in the operation of a powered industrial truck if the employer certifies that the operator has been evaluated and has proven to be competent to operate the truck safely. However, the employer is fully responsible for documentation certifying that the required training and evaluation has taken place for all truck operators.
The operator would need additional training in those elements where his or her performance indicates the need for further training and for new types of equipment and areas of operation.
TEMPORARY EMPLOYEES
OSHA has issued several letters of interpretations on the subject of training of temporary employees. Basically, there is a shared responsibility for assuring employees are adequately trained. The responsibility for providing training should be spelled out in the contractual agreement between the two parties. The temporary agency or the contracting employer may conduct the training and evaluation of operators from a temporary agency as required by the standard; however, the host employer (or other employer who enters into a contract with the temporary agency) must provide site-specific information and training on the use of the particular types of trucks and workplace-related topics that are present in the workplace.
DOCUMENTATION REQUIREMENTS
The OSHA standard requires that the employer certify that each operator has received the training and has been evaluated. The written certification record must include the name of the operator, the date of the training, the date of the evaluation, and the identity of the person(s) performing the training or evaluation.
Employers who evaluate the operator’ s performance more frequently than every three years may retain the most recent certification record; otherwise, certification records must be maintained for three years.

We Protect Our Hard Assets, Our Brands and Our Other Intellectual Property
We go to extraordinary lengths to preserve, protect and responsibly use all of our assets. This includes tangible as well as intangible assets, such as our brands, technology, business information and intellectual capital. We will not make unauthorized disclosure of trade secrets or other sensitive information belonging to the company, our customers, dealers or suppliers—either during employment by our company or thereafter. When sharing company information with others, we ensure appropriate controls are in place to protect our interests. While we may hire individuals who have knowledge and experience in various technical areas, we do not employ people as a means of gaining access to trade secrets and sensitive information of others. We have a personal responsibility to use every appropriate means to safeguard our company’s assets from loss, theft, damage or misuse.
We Safeguard Our Confidential Information
We consider every piece of information we own an asset. Some of it we share with others through advertising, product documentation, news releases and public financial reporting. Everything else—including trade secrets, confidential financial information, new product or service development plans and other sensitive corporate and personal information—we protect through careful attention to Information Protection Guidelines and interpersonal communication, appropriate management of Corporate Records, the secure use of all communications media and, where applicable, legally enforceable agreements.
We Use Electronic Communications Technology Responsibly and Professionally
Electronic communication technology plays a vital role in how we conduct our business every day. Access to the Internet and use of IFI Industrial Forklift Intranet systems, e-mail, telephones, fax machines and mobile devices are important. The company’s technology is maintained for legitimate business activities by authorized individuals, and to support a positive, professional business climate. As employees, we are expected to use such technology in a responsible and professional manner consistent with the Code and other company policies.
We Recognize and Respect Personal Privacy
We recognize and respect the personal information privacy interest of individuals. We collect and process only relevant, accurate information needed or appropriate for business purposes, and do so only by lawful and fair means. We appropriately safeguard the security and confidentiality of company records containing personal information whether those records are held by IFI Industrial Forklift and limit access to such information only to those who have a legitimate business need for it when permitted by law.
We Are Pro-Active Members of Our Communities
As individuals and as a company, we contribute significant time and resources to promoting the health, welfare and economic stability of our communities. We encourage all employees to participate in community activities that promote the common good. We believe that our success should also contribute to the quality of life in, and the prosperity and sustainability of, communities where we work and live.
We Make Responsible Ownership and Investment Decisions
IFI Industrial Forklift investments must be compatible with social and economic priorities, local laws, customs and traditions of the countries where we do business. In all cases, our conduct should promote acceptance and respect for our company. We also expect that our host countries will recognize our need for stability, growth and business success, and that they will honor their agreements, including those relating to rights and properties of citizens of other nations.
We Participate in Public Matters in an Appropriate Manner
Our employees should feel free to participate in public matters and political processes according to their individual beliefs and citizenship rights. Where we participate as individuals in public matters or the political process we must be mindful that such activity is done in our individual capacity as private citizens and not on behalf of our company, and we must make this clear to all involved. The company engages in public policy issues vital to IFI Industrial Forklift success and supports committees aimed at encouraging political contributions by individuals and, from time to time—with the approval of the Chairman—may make political contributions as laws allow.

Classroom sessions vary in length from four to six hours, depending on your forklift types and application. The classroom portion is followed by hands-on evaluations for the group which last one to several hours, depending on class size and the number of forklift types to be tested on. Our forklift hands-on evaluations are always conducted at your site and on your forklifts, which is required by OSHA. Many times, we have forklift operators in class who have been in the workplace for decades and it is common to hear them comment that this is the best safety training of any type they have EVER had.
Lots of companies conduct forklift operator training, very few put much enthusiasm into it, even fewer are able to convince operators to change their behaviors; we can do this for you and we are proud of it. Our customers count us among their most reliable vendors, based on quality of instruction, willingness to help improve safety at their site and the ability to manage each training project, no matter how complex. We offer training options covering 24 hours a day, six days a week. If you are located in Ohio, Indiana or Kentucky and need forklift operator training we are here to help; if you are located outside the tri-state area, we can assist you with training a forklift trainer.
