WHO IS THIS SERVICE FOR
This training is required for warehouses, distribution centers, manufacturing plants, construction sites, auto shops, and other operations using forklifts or pallet jacks. Whether you’re certifying new operators or re-certifying experienced ones, GMG helps ensure every driver meets OSHA’s rigorous standards.
WHY IT MATTERS
OSHA requires all forklift operators to complete formal training, hands-on evaluation, and certification before operating any powered industrial truck. Failure to comply can result in costly citations, injuries, or equipment damage. GMG’s training helps you meet regulatory requirements, reduce incident risk, and build a safer, more confident workforce.
We guide you through the entire process, from sign up to implementation. This needs to be a real introductory paragraph that works across all sub sub pages.
