Background
The previous OSHA standards, while requiring
operator training, did not define the type of
training or authorization required.
March 15, 1988 - Industrial Truck Association
(ITA) petitioned OSHA for specific training
requirements.
14. 14
Background (continued)
American National Standards Institute (ANSI),
in cooperation with ASME, has revised its
standard 4 times, including current lifttruck
technology and specific training topics.
15. 15
Background (continued)
OSHA published a proposed ruling on March 14,
1995 for General Industry, Shipyard, Marine
Terminals, and Longshoring regulations, adding
specific training requirements.
On January 30, 1996, OSHA proposed a revision of
the construction standards, mandating the
development of an operator training program based
on the prior knowledge and skills of the trainee and
requiring a periodic evaluation.
16. 16
Final Rule
OSHA published the final rule for Powered
Industrial Truck Operator Training on
December 1, 1998.
The effective date is March 1, 1999. Start-up
dates are included in paragraph (l)(7).
It applies to all industries except agricultural

Effective Powered Industrial Truck
Operator Training Program
Four major areas of concern must be addressed:
The general hazards that apply to the operation of all
or most powered industrial trucks;
The hazards associated with the operation of
particular types of trucks;
The hazards of workplaces generally; and,
The hazards of the particular workplace where the
vehicle operates.
38. 38
Types of Powered Industrial Trucks
There are many different types of powered
industrial trucks covered by the OSHA standard.
Commonly used types include:
High lift trucks, counterbalanced trucks, cantilever trucks,
rider trucks, forklift trucks, high lift trucks, high lift platform
trucks, low lift trucks, motorized hand trucks, pallet trucks,
straddle trucks, reach rider trucks, high lift order picker
trucks, motorized hand/rider trucks, and counterbalanced
front/side loader lift trucks.
A single type of truck can only be described by
calling it by all of its characteristics, (e.g., a high
lift, counterbalanced, sit down rider truck).
39. 39
Unique Characteristics of Powered
Industrial Trucks
Each type of powered industrial truck has its
own unique characteristics and some inherent
hazards.
To be effective, training must address the unique
characteristics of the type of vehicle the
employee is being trained to operate.
