Forklift Training Programs
Companies that have forklifts on-site must set up a machine specific program designed to train employees on proper operating procedures. This program must include a classroom training session, a written exam, and a driving practical. Employees who do not complete this training should under no circumstances be permitted to operate a forklift. ERS will ensure that the required training regimen is completed with company employees who use or could potentially use a forklift.
ERS will provide your company with the following:
- Employee training
- Driver evaluations

All forklift operators at a company must be in compliance with the new OSHA safety training regulation 29 CFR 1910.178. If not, the company may be subject to expensive fines and possible denial of insurance coverage for forklift accidents.

A reliable forklift is one of the most widely used tools in any operation. From construction sites to factories; from warehouses to automotive repair facilities, everyone needs a forklift and a forklift driver who knows how to use it safely and effectively.

Not only that, but OSHA inspectors will be looking closely at your forklift fleet and the people who drive it. If they find any forklift safety concerns, you may end up being shut down while you get up to code, meaning lost revenue and plenty of other headaches. Depending on the severity of your forklift certification infractions, they may even be able to levy hefty fines or bring criminal charges against you. That’s why forklift safety should be a critical concern for business owners in Delaware, Bucks County, and all over the country.
