![]() ![]() Thomas Marple at 20.As one of the largest forklift training providers in Ontario, Industrial Safety Trainers prides ourselves in delivering impactful discussion-based training on the safe use of forklifts. If you have any questions please contact Mr. I hope this clarifies our policy for you. We will also evaluate the effectiveness of this method of delivering the training to students. Our purpose is to assure that the material is consistent with that delivered in the courses presented on site by certified instructors. OSHA has simply agreed to evaluate the program SMACNA is developing to deliver this training to their members through the use of multi-media technology and remote access. The OSHA Training Institute currently trains and certifies public and private instructors to present the OSHA 10-hour Construction course and to issue cards to the students certifying that they have completed the course. You enclosed with your letter an article from SMAC, the magazine of the Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors National Association (SMACNA), reporting that OSHA has endorsed a pilot training program they are developing. All of the topics contained in OSHA's current "Powered Industrial Truck Operator Training" standard are addressed by this program. The training package you submitted combines text book training with "hands on" skills. ![]() The requirement for a passing score of 80% indicates a commitment to quality training. The "Qualifying Examination" questions are a general review of the major skills and safety issues that an operator must know to work in a safe manner. ![]() The requirement to pass the section containing load charts and warning labels, without an error exceeds the OSHA standards and clearly conveys the importance of safe vehicle operation. The proficiency check sheet addresses details for the safe operation of the vehicle such as the use of seat belts understanding load charts and rated loads inspections of gauges adjusting to specific site conditions traveling lifting etc. The "MCAA Rough Terrain Forklift Safety and Maintenance Training Course" (Hands on Test) provides the instructor with guidance for the evaluation of the operator. ![]() A variety of working conditions showing safe and unsafe operations helps to reinforce the written text. The video summarizes all the material in the manual and with actual photographic sequences and graphics illustrations that further explain topics such as vehicle stability and steering.The review quiz that follows each major section reinforces the safe work procedures and skills for each section. The programmed learning sequences in the manual uses pictures and text from the video on the same page as the practice test questions and answers. The "MCAA Rough Terrain Forklift Safety and Maintenance Training Manual" (Classroom Section) parallels the information in the "Rough Terrain Forklift" video.It also provides guidance for periodic skills retraining and student progress determinations. The "Administrators' Guide" contains recommendations that all instructors would find useful for conducting the sessions, assisting the students, training supervisors, and testing for retention and practical skills.The sections cover, in a way that is easily understood, the skills and knowledge necessary for an operator to safely operate a "rough terrain" or "heavy" powered industrial truck. The five sections of this Rough Terrain Forklift Training Course address each section of OSHA's, "Powered Industrial Truck Operator Training" standard as published in the DecemFederal Register. Although OSHA cannot endorse or approve any product or services, we are pleased to evaluate the training materials you provided and to advise you if they meet the intent of the standards. Thank you for the invitation to review the complete set of materials for the Mason Contractors Association of America (MCAA), Rough Terrain Forklift Training Course. ![]()
