Stay Up to Date On Safety Standards With Best Line Equipment

Aug. 19 2019 Safety By Best Line Equipment

In the equipment industry, there's one value that stands out among the rest: safety. The reality is that, when you're working with machinery of any shape or size, you're exposing yourself to risk. If you've been in the industry for even a short amount of time, you probably already know this to be true. 

Here at Best Line Equipment, we keep safety at the forefront of operations. Our priority is to keep you and your employees safe on the jobsite. To put this value into action, we offer a number of certifications and classes to help keep you up to date on the latest safety standards in the industry. The courses we provide are composed of classroom lectures, video presentations, and hands-on training. Some certifications also require written tests. 

We currently offer courses for the following certifications:

  • MEWP Certifications (For boom and scissor lifts)
  • Industrial Forklift Certifications
  • Telehandler/Lull/Pettibone Certifications 

And while there is no OSHA certification for skid-steer and excavator classes, we still offer them and can provide training certificates. Educating yourself in as many areas of safety as you can cuts down on risk for both you and those around you. 

**As an important reminder, all old Aerial Certifications will expire in December, 2019. Anybody who operates this equipment needs to be trained on the new "MEWP" standards. Additionally, all supervisors of operators will need to complete a "MEWP Supervisor Training" course that is offered online by manufacturers. Due to a mandatory deadline of December 10, 2019, classes are filling up fast, so be sure to sure to schedule yours as soon as you can!**
