Employers, make sure your employees know the hazards of working with forklifts in the workplace by instituting a Forklift Safety Policy for your company.

The Policy sets out the operating rules to be followed by all forklift operators, and the company’s plans to orient all other employees who may be at risk from the proximity of the equipment to their work areas.

This Forklift Safety Policy was developed by Lyall Hodgson, an OHS specialist, and is provided in MS Word format. This form refers to Canadian legislation.
