Are your Forklift Drivers Certified?

OSHA requires that all persons who have the occasion to use any powered materials handling equipment must be certified before they can operate them.  Recertification also needs to be completed every 3 years thereafter.  Additional training is required if any person has an accident or is observed operating equipment in an unsafe manner.
