OSHA Pallet Jack Safety Training

The OSHA Pallet Jack Safety Training course is designed in accordance with OSHA standards, including 29 CFR 1910.178 and 29 CFR 1926.602. This training educates workers on the safe operation of both manual and electric pallet jacks, helping reduce material handling injuries and ensuring compliance with OSHA workplace safety requirements.

What Is a Pallet Jack?

A pallet jack is a material handling tool used to lift and transport palletized loads over short distances.
