Forklift and Aerial Lift Safety

Lifts make the job easier — but one wrong move can cause serious harm.

Forklifts and aerial lifts are common on construction sites, but misuse can lead to tip-overs, collisions, and falls. These toolbox talks cover OSHA operator training requirements, pre-use inspections, load handling, platform safety, fall protection in lifts, and traffic control in shared work areas. Use them to help crews operate lifts safely, avoid common mistakes, and follow site-specific safety protocols.

Use these toolbox talks to support lift safety awareness, prevent accidents, and maintain compliance with OSHA equipment standards.
