Pallet Truck Training
The same obligation we find in the Quebec legislation for forklift training applied to pallet trucks (sect. 256.1 LSST). Other than this requirement, the health and safety of your employees and business continuity are at risk by these instruments which frequently are involved in accidents and major injuries. Sanctions can be applied against the employer who has the responsibility of adequately training his staff.
