Corporate Training By Zack Academy - Marina Forklift Operator Certification

Why Should You Take This Marina Forklift Operator Certification Course?

OSHA has promulgated the Final Rule for Powered Industrial Truck Operator Training [29 CFR 1910.178(l)], which became effective March 1, 1999. The standard requires operator training and licensing as well as periodic evaluations of operator performance. The standard also addresses specific training requirements for truck operation, loading, seat belts, overhead protective structures, alarms, and maintenance of industrial trucks. Refresher training is required if the operator is observed operating the truck in an unsafe manner, is involved in an accident or near miss, or is assigned a different type of truck.

OSHA estimates that tens of thousands of employees are injured or killed annually due to forklift accidents. In 1999, because of serious concerns about forklift accidents, inuries and deaths, OSHA updated its regulation regarding Powered Industrial Trucks.

This Marina Forklift Operator Certification course is designed to provide the operators with the skills and knowledge necessary for a variety of responsibilities and function involved in the operation and maintenance of the Marina Lift. The training enforces the safety of the pedestrian and the operator. Pre-startup inspection and startup safety procedures, routine maintenance practice, and operating techniques are examined. At the conclusion of this program students should be able to demonstrate safe operation of the Marina Lift as required by the OSHA Regulation Occupational Safety and Health Administration Standard 29 CFR 1910.178.
