Nearly 1,000,000 powered industrial trucks are used in the workplace today. They are produced in many different sizes and models, and help us perform a wide variety of tasks. While these machines assist us in lifting and moving heavy loads, they can also extremely dangerous to operate. Each year, powered industrial trucks account for more than 100,000 injuries and over 100 deaths. To prevent accidents that result in personal injury and property damage, forklift operators must possess the physical and mental ability to operate this equipment safely. The eight forklift accidents re-created in this video will show your employees the life-threatening consequences of incorrect and unsafe lift truck operation. As a result, operators and pedestrians will be motivated to make an ongoing commitment to safety in areas where forklifts are present. They will also understand the three basic areas of forklift safety.
Order selectors, sometimes called order pickers, allow us to move materials, supplies and merchandise to and from storage areas more efficiently than ever before. Like all other powered industrial trucks, they can be extremely hazardous if safe work practices are not followed. Operators of order selectors have a responsibility to operate them in a safe manner at all times. This program examines some common hazards posed by the operation of order selectors and how to control these hazards through safe operating practices. Topics include order selector stability characteristics, pre-operational inspection, lifting and stacking materials properly, fall prevention, safe traveling techniques, preventing injuries to pedestrians and properly parking the vehicle.
Reach trucks are a critical part of many material handling operations, as they can move loads of material smoothly and efficiently in areas too tight for traditional forklifts. As useful, powerful and critical as they have become, reach trucks can also be dangerous when operated in an unsafe manner. Operators must have a good safety attitude and commitment to responsible operation to prevent injuries and property damage. This program discusses common hazards presented by the operation of reach trucks and how to control those hazards through safe operating techniques. Topics include reach truck stability and handling characteristics, pre-operational inspection, lifting and moving loads safely, avoiding tip-overs, and traveling on sloped surfaces. Safe driving techniques, preventing injuries to pedestrians, lifting personnel safely, parking the truck and working in and around trailers and rail cars are other addressed issues.
Employees can easily recognize the hazards associated with material handling, welding, machine operation, electrical work and other dangerous job tasks, but they tend to overlook more common hazards that affect everyone. Some of these common hazards affect a lot of people with a wide variety of job descriptions, but these employees all share a common job title when it comes to these particular hazards: pedestrian. More than 25 million workers suffer some type of injury while walking at work each year. Like other on-the-job injuries, these incidents can be prevented. This video shows employees the precautions they must take to avoid incidents while walking. Topics include awareness of walking hazards, workplace signs, slips and falls, walking around material handling equipment, overhead hazards and traveling through parking lots.
This program is designed to provide your employees with the equipment-specific training needed to comply with OSHA's powered industrial truck standard. Handle with Care: Forklift Safety Training will educate your employees on the most common type of equipment - the sit down, counter balanced forklift.
