Help customers and employees maintain highest safety standards

Our safety-first mission is integrated into everything we do

Ensure best practices to comply with OSHA safety regulations


OSHA FORKLIFT TRAINING

OSHA regulations require companies to maintain safe operations and ensure all employees are comprehensively trained on the equipment that will be used during daily operations. Companies that meet these standards better ensure that workers will not be involved in a preventable accident. Also, staying compliant helps you avoid expensive OSHA fines and serious penalties that hinder productivity and have a negative impact on your company’s ability to secure bids or government contracts.


MATERIAL HANDLING SAFETY

Here at Equipment Depot, we provide companies with training programs for forklift safety as well as safety training for other material handling equipment. Our training courses will help employees fully understand the importance of being OSHA-compliant by following all equipment safety protocols. They will also practice workplace safety initiatives and policies that will adhere to both company and federal standards. We provide technical training and operator skills testing that abides by all current OSHA regulations. We work directly with technicians, supervisors and warehouse managers across all of our 50+ locations to help your team:

Become fully trained and certified on how to safely operate forklifts and other material handling equipment
Gain knowledge around worker and pedestrian safety when operating equipmentLearn to prepare for OSHA inspections and operator evaluations

MAINTAINING SAFE OPERATIONS DURING EQUIPMENT USE

During busy workdays, employees can often become solely focused on their productivity, from loading and unloading shipments, moving products, stocking shelves or picking orders.

Warehouse operations can also become chaotic with the number of forklifts and other material handling equipment moving about the warehouse floor. During this time, forklift safety awareness can decrease and the likelihood of workplace accidents increases. As a result, warehouse structure, racking and products can be damaged, or worse, workers can become injured, all causing unplanned downtime.

When your workers take routine training and refresher courses provided by Equipment Depot, your company can prevent unexpected downtime caused by workplace accidents. Additionally, you will avoid worker compensation claims if employees become injured or fall ill. Get the superior training, equipment, parts and service from a company you can trust.
