The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has launched a three-year
emphasis program in response to growing warehouse injury and illness rates. With forklifts
being a leading contributor of OSHA citations, be sure to consider all of the available
technologies, solutions, and best practices to help reduce and prevent common warehouse
hazards and injuries.
Comprehensive operator training is the essential foundation for forklift safety. In fact, OSHA estimates that forklift safety incidents could be reduced by as much as 25% through effective training. Access professional support to help you develop and deliver an OSHA-compliant forklift operator training program.
Operator behavior isn’t the only factor in safety. Forklifts must be regularly inspected, maintained, and repaired according to manufacturer recommendations. Leverage a planned maintenance program to help you stay on top of equipment service.
As a leading contributor of OSHA citations, forklifts are a focus area for the program. Review steps you can take to apply safety best practices.
