OSHA Forklift Certification

As stated in section 1910.178(i)( 6) of OSHA's Powered Industrial Trucks standard, any worker that operates a motorized pallet jack or lift truck must be completely trained, tested and certified in order to operate that specific equipment. Moreover, those workers must be re-certified every 3 years, or in the event of an accident, job deficiency or equipment change.

Forklift Operator Training

Hiring and training a good team can be difficult, particularly in the material handling industry which has faced a shortage of qualified workers for many years. Offering top notch training can substantially improve recruitment, retention and workplace satisfaction. Safety on the Move ®, Raymond's renowned lift truck operator training program, has helped many companies to protect their employees, equipment, and products since its introduction.

When you coach your forklift operators in the right way you can maximize your efficiency and productivity throughout every shift. Operators that are highly knowledgeable about their equipment tend to take more interest in proper maintenance. Highly trained equipment operators also have less frequent safety incidents, resulting in less damage to your facilities, equipment, product and racks.

Pedestrian Training

In any material handling operation, all employees need to be cautious all the time, not just the lift truck operators. With that in mind, Raymond has designed a forklift pedestrian course that will challenge your entire warehouse team to be hyper-aware and attentive. Raymond's Steps To Safety ™: Pedestrian Safety in a Material Handling Environment course allows organizations to teach all warehouse workers how to be accountable in active equipment zones and maintain safety conscious and productive environments. In this coursework, pedestrians learn how to stay vigilant in the warehouse, visual communication skills, and the best ways to prevent safety incidents and bodily harm.

The Steps To Safety program was developed based on requests for assistance from Raymond customers in addressing their employer-based pedestrian training needs. Steps To Safety encourages the application of the principles taught in the program to specific material handling processes and business environments.

The program can be used as a supplement to Raymond's lift truck operator training course, Safety On The Move or as a standalone training. The coursework can be facilitated by a local Raymond West representative or by an accredited instructor within your organization.

Virtual Reality Forklift Simulator

Along with educational materials, Raymond has recently released a highly innovative Virtual Reality Simulator, featuring industry leading VR technology to help you develop more skilled, efficient lift truck operators.

The simulator puts trainees on an actual Raymond forklift in a very convincing virtual warehouse. Using VR devices, trainees can get continuous feedback while dealing with lifelike "real world" scenarios.

Forklift Technician Training

Beyond operator and pedestrian trainings, we offer continuing education for your in-house mechanical experts. Keep your onsite forklift technicians up to speed on the most advanced tools, technologies, and repair and maintenance procedures. Customer Technician Courses can be arranged at your facility, your local Raymond West branch in Ontario, CA or Raymond's corporate headquarters.
