Forklifts are powerful machines that can cause serious accidents and injuries if not operated correctly. As an employer, you have a legal responsibility to ensure your forklift operators are trained to recognize hazards and stay safe at all times. To help you meet these obligations, we have designed our forklift training to meet CSA standard B335-15. Clients are invited to submit in-house policies to be included during the training session.

Employer's Responsibilities
Workplace Specific Training
While initial training will offer the basics of safe forklift operation, it does not allow for the practice that is necessary to become a truly efficient and confident operator. We recommend that you enforce a policy for new operators to complete a set amount of hours under the direct supervision of a supervisor or competent operator before they can be permitted to work alone.
These hours may vary based on age, ability, and a willingness to follow direction. To help guide you with this decision, our trainers can submit a follow-up report to you with our recommendations for each operator. |
