What OSHA requires of Fort Lauderdale forklift operators
An employer may only allow operators who have completed a proper training program to run a forklift. A complete certification has three parts:
The employer must keep a written record showing the operator’s name, the trainer’s name, and the dates of the training and the evaluation.
How often re-certification is required
Operators must be re-evaluated at least once every three years. Refresher training is required sooner if an operator is seen driving unsafely, is involved in an accident or near-miss, is assigned to a different type of forklift, or if conditions in the workplace change.
Where our online course fits in Fort Lauderdale
Our $58 online course delivers the OSHA-compliant formal-instruction portion required — the knowledge training and written test — completed in about an hour from any phone or computer. Because OSHA also requires a hands-on evaluation on the specific truck in your actual workplace, the employer completes that final step on site. Employers certifying a full crew can use our Train-and-Certify kit, which supplies the evaluation checklist and documentation to finish and record that step for every operator.
From Port Everglades cruise and cargo operations and the marine-industry yards to construction supply, hospitality distribution, and warehousing along the I-95 corridor, Fort Lauderdale keeps certified forklift operators in steady demand.
