ISO 23676 specifies employers to develop and implement training materials based on the general principles of safe truck operation, the types of vehicles being used in the workplace, the hazards of the workplace created by the use of the vehicles, etc. Trained operators must know how to do the job properly and do it safely as demonstrated by workplace evaluation. The employer is responsible for implementing a training program and ensuring that only trained drivers who have successfully completed the training program are allowed to operate powered industrial trucks.
ISO 23676 helps the employer to evaluate the operator’s performance and determine the operator to be competent to operate a powered industrial truck safely
