Training must consist of formal training (lectures, video tapes, etc.) and practical training involving actual operation of the forklift. Any operational training and evaluation must be conducted by an individual who has the “knowledge, training and experience” to train operators and evaluate their performance.  \nTo help clients comply with this regulatory requirement, KPA has reviewed the applicable regulation and has prepared this sample formal (classroom) instruction program and an online training program. Please note, KPA is not an expert on forklifts or on the training requirements for any particular forklift. Instead, its knowledge is limited to that obtained from a review of the Powered Industrial Truck Regulation. Consequently, if a facility wishes to make use of this sample document, it must first carefully review and modify it as necessary to ensure it suits circumstances at the facility. If modifications are minor, KPA may, on request, be able to conduct this classroom training. The facility can also use an alternate training source. KPA is not able to conduct any operational training or performance evaluation. Finally, other equipment such as walking pallet trucks and tow tractors may also be regulated as “powered industrial trucks.” Please note that this training and evaluation process applies to all powered industrial trucks and that they should refer to the federal regulation (29CFR1910.178) or equivalent state standard for additional information.  \nFORKLIFT TRAINING PROGRAM  \nCLASSROOM INSTRUCTION OUTLINE  \nI. Introduction:  \nA. Definition:  \nA “powered industrial truck” is any mobile power-propelled truck used to carry, push, pull, lift, stack or tier materials. Powered industrial trucks can be ridden or controlled by a walking operator. A forklift is a powered industrial truck. Other examples include walking pallet trucks and tow tractors.  \nThis training program is for forklift operators.  \nB. Differences Between a Forklift and an Automobile:  \nA forklift is basically a lever on wheels. An important difference between an automobile and a forklift is that a forklift steers with the rear wheels and has a front drive axle. Also, a forklift travels in reverse almost as much time as it travels forward. As a result, forklift transmissions usually have forward and reverse speeds of equal gearing and power. In addition, most forklifts are powered by either LPG (propane) or electric batteries. Some additional differences between a forklift and an automobile include:  \n On most forklifts there are no speedometers.  \n When an operator drives a forklift, his body is exposed to temperatures, dust, chemical emissions and other environmental conditions.  \n Unlike automobiles, most forklifts allow for only one person – the operator.  \nC. Reason for Forklift Training:  \n Annual forklift/powered industrial truck accident toll:  \no 100 fatalities  \no 36,000 serious injuries  \n OSHA’s estimate: 20 – 25% of accidents are caused, at least in part, by inadequate operator training.  \nII. Training Requirements:  \nOSHA regulations mandate that forklift operators receive both formal (classroom) instruction and practical training on the forklift(s) they will operate. This training class is intended to satisfy the requirement for the formal/classroom instruction. In addition to providing a regulatory overview, this instruction will focus on providing:  \n General guidelines on forklift operation.  \n General safety guidelines.  \nAfter this training is completed, individuals who operate forklifts should receive prac","cbCaiaXY1kB9bGSz","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiaXY1kB9bGSz","pdf",602711,25,"English","# Introduction\n## Definition\n## Differences Between a Forklift and an Automobile\n## Reason for Forklift Training\n# Training Requirements\n# Classroom Training Elements\n## Truck Related Topics","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of this forklift training program?\",\"answer\":\"It provides formal classroom instruction to satisfy regulatory requirements for forklift operator competence and outlines what trainees should learn before receiving practical operation training.\"},{\"question\":\"What training is required in addition to classroom instruction?\",\"answer\":\"Operators must also receive practical hands-on training on the specific forklift(s) they will operate, including retraining when needed and refresher training at least once every three years.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the program describe the scope of “powered industrial trucks”?\",\"answer\":\"It states that powered industrial trucks include any mobile power-propelled truck used to carry, push, pull, lift, stack, or tier materials, and it notes that walking pallet trucks and tow tractors may also be regulated under this classification.\"}]","FORKLIFT TRAINING PROGRAM - FORKLIFT TRAINING PROGRAM | PDF",1790758586,63]
