Information

Forklifts are, by common admission, the most commonly used lifting machines and also valuable tools that find application and use in a large number of productive activities, such as in industry, in all kinds of construction, in port facilities, in transportation, etc.

Forklift accidents are very common and for this reason it is necessary for operators (& assistants) to participate frequently in training programs that report good practices and instructions for the safe handling of forklifts.

“The more hours of training, the fewer & more serious the related work accidents from the use of forklifts”

Program Duration: 1 day

The main objective of the program is to familiarize participants with issues related to the risks that exist when using forklifts.

This training contributes to the reduction (qualitative & quantitative) of occupational accidents that occur in industry, as it:

  • ensures knowledge and self-confidence in the worker-operator
  • satisfies the requirements of safety technicians and foremen and
  • demonstrates in practice the employer’s effort to reduce occupational accidents
  • and the continuous interest in the safe work of its technical staff
