I am having a problem at work where between all of the forklifts that we currently have the maximum rating is 5600 lbs. yet we have tubs that we must move that have a gross weight of up to 6300 lbs. I have pointed this out to management and there response it that we just have to use the forks to roll the tubs from place to place everything is fine despite the fact the we must lift the tubs up onto scales. Management is firm in their position. Is this an issue to file a complaint to OSHA with?
