Powered Industrial Trucks (PIT) Operators Overview
Powered industrial trucks like forklifts, motorized pallet jacks, tuggers, tow motors and other powered equipment are used every day to lift and move equipment or materials… So what’s the big deal? Because of the high risk of injury and even death while operating a powered industrial truck, OSHA regulates their operation in 29 CFR 1910.178, and requires employers to provide training in their use. Specifically, powered industrial truck operators must receive comprehensive initial training, including facility specifics, a hands-on skill demonstration in the workplace and an evaluation. But the OSHA training requirements don’t stop there. Employers must also provide refresher training on powered industrial trucks under certain circumstances.
