Course Details

This program provides training to employees whose duties require them to operate rough terrain forklifts on construction worksites. Participants will learn about the principles and operation of Rough Terrain Forklift Trucks (RTFL). They also learn of the rights and duties of the worksite parties, legislation that governs RTFL use, hazards of RTFL, the associated controls and the safe work procedures that apply to RTFL operations.

This program is designed for workers who will operate powered lift trucks (Classes 1 to 5). It is divided into three important components, including formal classroom learning, a supervised practical hands-on component with the specific lift truck the worker will use and a follow-up evaluation by an authorized instructor who observes actual work performance.

In the classroom, participants will first explore the basics of powered lift truck operation including selection criteria, stability, lift capacity and other principles of counterbalance theory. Legislation, guidelines and standards governing the use of powered lift trucks are explored, including relevant sections in the Industrial Regulations.

Participants will explore the many hazards specific to the operation of a powered lift truck and the work area in which it will be operated. Important in this discussion will be the safety measures aimed at eliminating the risk to health of operators and other workplace parties. Special attention is paid to the components of an effective powered lift truck pre-start inspection checklist.

Safe operating rules and practices will also be identified and discussed.

Upon completion of this program participants must complete the mandatory practicum component. This will allow participants to apply the theories discussed to practical workplace situations under supervised and experienced guidance.
