With over 85 forklift-related fatalities every year, the proper training to operate an industrial truck is absolutely necessary. It’s been proven that untrained forklift operators are a liability. OSHA is able to fine an employer thousands of dollars if there is someone on a job site who is operating a forklift without the proper certification. Forklift operators who have undergone the proper training receive higher pay rates and are more likely to be hired by an employer. At Forklift Academy, we’ve been the leading providers of Forklift certification to Hayward residents for years.
You shouldn’t hesitate to receive the training. It takes less than four hours to complete, and you’ll receive the Forklift License as soon as you complete the course. The training is administered by an instructor certified by OSHA who has years of experience. The classes are interactive and informative, and will teach you everything you need to know to operate a forklift in a work environment.
