Forklift Safety Day 2024

Wednesday, May 10 2023

What You Can Do to Recognize Forklift Safety Day

Forklift Safety Day is a great opportunity to review your forklift safety program and/or plan. And if you don’t have a program or plan, this would be a great opportunity to create one!

Start with Training

Are all of your forklift operators up-to-date on their training. Remember, forklift operators must receive refresher training every three years, and be evaluated on the equipment that they operate.
How well do you know your operators? Download our Forklift Operator Questionnaire to get to know their experience operating lift equipment.
Learn more about Operator Training and our classes at our Training Page.

Inspections and Maintenance

We know that pre-shift inspections of all equipment are required by OSHA. But did you know that by taking a few minutes to inspect equipment not only improves safety, it helps you identify small issues before they blossom into giant repair or injury and damage headaches.

Improved Productivity: Electric forklifts have faster acceleration and lifting speeds, which can help increase productivity.
Quieter Operation: Electric forklifts are much quieter than their diesel or propane counterparts, making them ideal for indoor use.
Increased Safety: Electric forklifts have a lower center of gravity, making them more stable during operation. They also have fewer moving parts, reducing the risk of mechanical failure.
