Description: MARCOM's "Forklift/Powered Industrial Truck Safety" Videotape Program has been specifically created to involve employees in the process of understanding forklift operation and to help facilities in fulfilling the OSHA Powered Industrial Truck Standard (29 CFR,1910.178) training requirements.
Forklifts and other powered industrial trucks are indispensable in many companies. They are rugged, powerful tools that save time, money and effort. But the same qualities that make them so helpful can also make them dangerous. Using powered industrial trucks results in over 100 fatalities and over 35,000 serious injuries each year. When used incorrectly, or if forklifts and other trucks are not properly maintained, they can do significant damage.
The Videotape and Employee Booklets include information on OSHA's certification process, the seven classes of industrial trucks, equipment checkout, a forklift's "Stability Triangle", safe operating procedures, lifting and lowering loads, trucks and loading docks, equipment maintenance, and more. The Videotape Program in the Kit comes with a comprehensive Leader's Guide, reproducible Scheduling & Attendance Form, Employee Quiz, Training Certificate and Training Log.
Forklift Safety Video and DVD Excerpt: Powered industrial trucks are rugged tools used to push, pull, carry, lift, and stack materials. These machines include the tractors that pull luggage carts at airports, the all-terrain reach-trucks operated at construction sites, and of course, forklifts. All of these vehicles save us time, money, and effort. But if they are not used correctly or maintained properly, they can be dangerous. OSHA’s powered industrial truck standard covers how to work safely with these machines. One of the most significant parts of the regulation deals with training. Before you can use any type of powered industrial truck OSHA requires that you be fully trained, evaluated, and certified by a competent instructor. Your certification process includes instruction on safety procedures and training on how to operate the industrial trucks that you will be using. You will also have supervised driving practice. Your knowledge and ability will be reevaluated at least once every three years. If necessary you will undergo re-training at this time. OSHA also requires training every time you are observed being unsafe, have a close call, or are involved in an accident. In addition retraining is required whenever there is a change in the workplace that may affect your ability to operate a powered industrial truck safely.
