Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.178(l)(1)(ii): Prior to permitting an employee to operate a powered industrial truck (except for training purposes), the employer shall ensure that each operator has successfully completed the training required by this paragraph (l), except as permitted by paragraph (l)(5). On or about May 7, 2024, the employer failed to train and certify employees on how to safely operate a forklift prior to allowing them to operate. Employees with no forklift training operated the forklift to load or unload materials or product, exposing other employees to struck-by hazards. Corrected during inspection.
