US OSHA Powered Industrial Truck E-Tool Training Resource

U.S. OSHA has released a powered industrial truck electronic training resource tool that could be of interest to forklift operator trainers/ training program developers. It focuses on the U.S. OSHA requirements but could also be helpful to others outside the United States.

OSHA has the following disclaimer noting it is a training resource and not a stand-alone self-contained substitute for a training program:

"Note: This eTool is intended as a resource for providing training under OSHA's Powered Industrial Truck standard. This eTool focuses on powered industrial trucks commonly used in general industry. It is not a substitute for any of the provisions of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, for the powered industrial truck standard, or for any other OSHA standards. It is also not a substitute for a powered industrial truck operator training program." (U.S. OSHA).

Had a good look at it today.

Very comprehensive and certainly useful to any trainer as support information.

I am impressed and I promise you that normally takes a lot to do.
