Forklift Operator Safety Checklist

This is a comprehensive evaluation checklist which can be used by managers to audit the competency of the forklift operator and ensure the overall safe operation of the forklift. Begin by assessing the operator's competency by checking for valid certificate of training. Next, proceed with observing how the operator controls the forklift and maneuvers in different directions. Check if the operator matches the load with the truck's capacity and stability, and how the operator stacks the load. Lastly, provide an overall evaluation of the operator's performance and add some recommendations to improve competency and safety. Confirm the evaluation by including both the operator's and the evaluator's name and signature. SafetyCulture templates can be edited to fit the needs of your workplace.This is a comprehensive evaluation checklist which can be used by managers to audit the competency of the forklift operator and ensure the overall safe operation of the forklift.
