The OSHA or Occupational Safety and Health Administration require that anyone using a counterbalanced forklift receive classroom or lecture style training. They also require that a periodic refresher training as well as a supervised driving program is finished. There is no required minimum time for the classroom training or supervised driving. As well, there is no frequency mandated for the refresher training either.
A counterbalanced forklift balances its load utilizing the truck's weight. The forks on a lift truck are in a fixed position; they go up and down and do not turn. The forks run parallel to the forklift's body. OSHA require that individuals who will be utilizing counterbalanced forklifts on the job be trained on the trucks while being in the kind of environment that they will be using them.
Lecture style training or classroom training provides information regarding the truck which the driver will be utilizing. This training covers aspects such as load and weight capacity, height, how to fuel or charge the forklift. It includes how to gauge the time on the engine as well as any forklift specific safety information like for example where to stand when walking around the truck. Either oral and/or written testing is part of the classroom training. There is no minimum time requirement for the training.
The operator of a forklift will have to learn to utilize the machine while being supervised. The supervised driving has to take place in an environment that resembles the current environment that the driver works in. This atmosphere should include the type of terrain she would be traveling on, have the same pedestrian and vehicle traffic nearby, and the same surrounding structures nearby also. There is no specific minimum number of hours the driver has to drive while being supervised.
