What’s in the Yard Truck Training Course?

Our Yard Truck Safety Training course is regulation compliant, and our online version fulfills classroom training requirements. Each class contains sections on exposure, first aid, personal protection equipment (PPE), safe practices, hazards, and more.

This presentation includes intermittent practice quiz questions to prepare for the final written exam included with the course. In addition to the written exam, this course also includes a checklist for employers to use when administering a practical exam as required.

Though you will still need to familiarize yourself with all other applicable federal, state, and local standards, this training encompasses the following standards for yard truck safety:

 

  • Encompasses these Canadian Standards

  • CAN/CSA-B335-04 – Safety Standard for Lift Trucks

  • CAN/CSA-B335-94 – Lift Truck Operator Training

  • ANSI/ITSDF B56.1 – Safety Standard for Low Lift & High Lift Trucks

 

Why do I need yard truck training?

In line with regulations, anyone who operates heavy equipment must receive training prior to operating the machine on their own. Requirements for refresher training related to forklifts or other processes are very specific. Most other equipment doesn’t have such specific requirements, but it’s wise to follow the same guidelines.

When it comes to refresher training, the standards in some instances (like forklifts) are very specific: operators must be re-evaluated every three years to see if they are still competent to operate the equipment. Best practices say to apply this same rule to all types of equipment. A so-called “free-pass” cannot be awarded based on experience, age, or time on the job. The extent of the evaluation is to be determined by the employer but should include a written and practical examination that prove continued competency.
