The Occupational Safety and Health Administration does require drivers using a counterbalanced forklift to have received lecture style or classroom training. They also require that a periodic refresher training as well as a supervised driving course is finished. There is no required minimum time for the supervised driving or classroom training. Also, there is no frequency mandated for the refresher training either.
A counterbalanced forklift balances its load with the weight of the truck. The forks on a lift truck are in a fixed position; they go down and up and do not turn. The forks run parallel to the forklift's body. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration require that people who will be operating counterbalanced forklifts on the job be properly trained on the trucks while being in the environment that they will be utilizing them.
Training either in a classroom or lecture style will offer forklift and operator information for the truck you will be using. Most training will cover certain aspects such as the load and weight capacity, height, how to charge or fuel the forklift. It includes how to gauge the time on the engine as well as any forklift specific safety information including where to stand when walking around the truck. Either oral and/or written testing is part of the classroom training. There is no minimum time requirement for the training.
The operator of a forklift will have to learn to drive the equipment while being supervised. The supervised driving has to take place in an environment that resembles the current environment that the operator works in. This atmosphere must include the type of terrain she would be traveling on, have the same pedestrian and vehicle traffic nearby, and the same surrounding structures close by too. There is no specific minimum number of hours the driver has to drive while being supervised.
