The Occupational Safety and Health Administration or OSHA require that anyone utilizing a counterbalanced forklift receive lecture style or classroom training. They additionally require that a periodic refresher training as well as a supervised driving program is completed. There is no minimum time requirement for the supervised driving or classroom training. Furthermore, there is no frequency mandated for the refresher training either.
A counterbalanced forklift balances its cargo with the weight of the truck. 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. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration require that drivers who would be using 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 offers information about the truck that the driver will be driving. This training covers aspects like load and weight capacity, height, how to charge or fuel 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 written and/or oral testing is part of the classroom training. There is no minimum time requirement for the training.
The operator of a forklift will need to learn to operate the equipment while being supervised. The supervised driving needs to take place in an environment that resembles the current environment which the driver works in. This atmosphere should include the type of terrain she will be traveling on, have similar surrounding structures nearby, and similar vehicle and pedestrian traffic nearby also. There is no required minimum number of hours the driver needs to drive while being supervised.
