Equipment Safety Training and proof of training is required by OSHA as well as most commercial and industrial sites. Proof of equipment training is needed to operate heavy equipment such as aerial lifts, forklifts, and earth moving equipment. At Sunbelt Rentals, our employee’s safety and our customer’s safety is more than a priority, it is our core value. We want our customers to complete their operations with our equipment safely and without incident or injury. Our operator training courses will educate you on the skills to work safely and more efficiently while in compliance with OSHA and provincial regulations.
