Moving materials around the workplace quickly and efficiently takes a lot of skill. And it's a big responsibility.

Often the best “tool” for the job is a specialized piece of "materials handling" equipment that most of us call a "forklift". Even though these vehicles can make certain jobs a lot easier, they can also be very dangerous. Thousands of workers are seriously injured in forklift accidents every year… and more than 100 are killed. And the people who get hurt include both “pedestrians” and forklift operators.

In addition to the human cost, forklift accidents can also cause damage to materials, facilities and the forklifts themselves.

Fortunately, these accidents can be prevented if forklift operators understand a forklift's limitations… and learn how to operate it safely.

MARCOM's Video On Demand (VOD) program on "Forklift Safety: Industrial Counterbalance Lift Trucks" gives employees the information they need to properly maintain and safely operate a forklift, the most common type of industrial counterbalance lift truck.

Topics covered in this course include:

  • The design, capabilities and limitations of forklifts
  • The basics of forklift stability
  • The hazards associated with operating a forklift
  • How to maintain and inspect forklifts
  • Safe work practices used when operating a forklift
  • …and more.

Like all MARCOM courses, this newly-updated course on "Forklift Safety: Industrial Counterbalance Lift Trucks" uses a powerful combination of full-motion, high-definition video filmed in real world locations, along with audio, text and colorful graphics to provide the most cost-effective training available today.

The "Forklift Safety: Industrial Counterbalance Lift Trucks" Micro-Learning curriculum includes the following five 3-5 minute courses:

  • "What Makes Forklifts 'Different'"
  • "Driving A Forklift Safely"
  • "Using The Mast and Forks"
  • "Operating Safely In The Workplace"
  • "Inspecting a Forklift"
  • "Refueling and Recharging Safely"

 

The English version of this course is currently available online in Full-Length Interactive, "Adaptive Learning" and Micro-Learning formats as well as Video On Demand (VOD) for streaming over the internet, and a DVD that can be played locally at your facility. Spanish versions of the course will be available soon.

Adaptive Learning

Adaptive Learning

“Adaptive Learning” takes advantage of an employee’s existing knowledge to create training courses that are customized for that employee, and don’t “reteach” them things that they already know. In other words, the Adaptive Learning process determines what an employee already knows about a topic, then structures courses that contain only the information that the employee needs to complete their knowledge of the topic.

These individually customized courses eliminate the largest employee complaint about safety training (“I already know most of this stuff, so why do I have to go through this training again?!”), while potentially recapturing thousands of hours of lost productivity.

MARCOM’s Adaptive Learning courses test employees before they take the course. Then based on the questions that they answer correctly, the course itself determines if the employee knows enough about the information in each chapter in the course to “test out” of that chapter… and if they do, automatically reconfigures the course to skip those chapters.

Reconfiguring the courses in this way typically saves about 50% of an employee’s time in taking a course. Over a year’s time this can recapture a significant amount of lost productivity time for a company of any size, and result in hundreds of thousands of dollars of annual savings.
