1-2 Day Program
Meeting and Surpassing all OSHA & ASME requirements
ASME
B56.6-1994 states, "The use of powered and non-powered
industrial trucks is subject to certain hazards that cannot
be completely eliminated by mechanical means, but the risks
can be minimized by the exercise of intelligence, care,
and common sense. It is therefore essential to have competent
and careful operators, physically and mentally fit, and
thoroughly trained in the safe operation of the equipment
and handling of the loads." You can be confident of
your employees' abilities upon their completion of this
course.

industrial lift trucks, also more commonly known as fork
trucks, are the most popular type of material-handling machinery
in use today. It is a common perception that due to design
and operating characteristics of this type of machine, anyone
is able to operate it with little or no training. Accident
statistics prove this to be a misconception. The trainee
and/or experienced operator will benefit from this program.

1 Day Program
Meeting newly required OSHA regulations
 Recently,
OSHA revised its fall protection standards to include some
very specific rules regarding use, adequacy and training.
Fall protection standards became effective February 16,
1995 on the Federal level, and April 6, 1995 for state-run
programs. This program covers all the new OSHA guidelines
and will familiarize your employees with the principles
of fall protection and fall protection systems.
