The Occupational Safety and Health Administration does require drivers utilizing a counterbalanced forklift to have received lecture style or classroom training. They additionally require that a supervised driving course is finished as well as periodic refresher training. There is no minimum time requirement for the supervised driving or classroom training. Also, there is no frequency mandated for the refresher training either.
A counterbalanced forklift balances its cargo using the weight of the truck. The forks on a lift truck are in a fixed position; they go up and down and do not turn. The forks run parallel to the forklift's body. OSHA require that people who will be using counterbalanced forklifts on the job be properly trained on the trucks while being in the kind of setting that they will be using them.
Lecture style training or classroom training offers information about the truck that the driver would be using. This training includes aspects such as load and weight capacity, height, how to fuel or charge the forklift. It covers how to gauge the time on the engine as well as any forklift specific safety information like for example 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 operate the machine while being supervised. The supervised driving has to take place in an environment which resembles the current environment that the operator works in. This atmosphere must include the kind of terrain she will be traveling on, have the same surrounding structures close by, and similar pedestrian and vehicle traffic close by too. There is no specific minimum number of hours the driver needs to drive while being supervised.
