        <RULE_TITLE>Powered Industrial Truck Operator Training (Industrial Truck Safety Training)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Operation of powered industrial trucks, such as forklifts, is the second leading cause of fatalities in the private sector, second only to highway vehicle fatalities. On average, there are 107 fatalities and 38,330 injuries annually in the workplace. ^PThe present standard has proven to be ineffective in reducing the number of accidents involving powered industrial trucks. As a result, there has been strong interest that OSHA issue a new standard to more effectively address this hazard. OSHA has revised the present standard to increase its effectiveness by requiring, in performance language, initial and refresher training and evaluation as necessary. The frequency of the refresher training will be based upon the vehicle operator's knowledge, skills, and abilities to perform the job safely. OSHA will also state what information the training should include. This rule will apply to general industry, the maritime industries and construction.]]></ABSTRACT>
