Driving a forklift is not like driving the family sedan. Forklifts are heavy machines that demand skill and awareness from their operators. To further complicate matters, these machines are typically operated in busy areas alongside workers and other forklifts.

OSHA recognizes the potential safety problems of operating a fork truck, requiring that anyone operating a forklift pass an approved safety course. Riekes Equipment has been offering OSHA approved courses for years. Our trainers are knowledgeable and understand the safety needs of forklift operators and their employers.

Training sessions typically include classroom and driving portions, and can be conducted at Riekes or even at your location.
