There are several jobs that require forklifts for operation, some of which include retail workers, dockworkers, warehouse workers, construction workers, and more. Where there are large items that need to be moved, there are forklifts!
The forklift certification informs forklift operators and aspiring operators of the risks of operating forklifts, which include:
- Attachments - Attachments, such as adjusting attachments, can be a source of workplace injury if not utilized properly. They can also cause weight capacity issues.
- Fueling - Refueling/recharging forklifts can make forklifts flammable. It's important that employees do not smoke near forklifts.
- Blind Spots - Much like driving a car, forklift operators need to be aware of blind spots to avoid injury. In most cases it is smart to just block of entire areas when forklifts are in operation.
- Flooring - The floor conditions of a warehouse can impact forklift operation. From puddles to debris, unstable ground can cause forklifts to overturn.
