The Occupational Safety and Health Administration or OSHA require that anyone operating a counterbalanced forklift receive lecture style or classroom training. They additionally require that a supervised driving program is finished as well as periodic refresher training. There is no minimum time requirement for the supervised driving or classroom training. What's more, there is no frequency mandated for the refresher training either.
A counterbalanced forklift balances its cargo using the truck's weight. The forks on a lift truck are in a fixed position; they go up and down and do not turn. The forks run parallel to the forklift's body. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration require that drivers who would be operating counterbalanced forklifts on the job be trained on the trucks while being in the kind of environment which they will be using them.
Training either lecture style or in a classroom will offer forklift and driver information for the truck you will be using. Most training will include certain aspects such as the weight and load capacity, height, how to fuel or charge the forklift. It covers how to gauge the time on the engine as well as any forklift specific safety information including where to stand when walking around the truck. Either oral and/or written testing is part of the classroom training. There is no required minimum time for the training.
The operator of a forklift would need to learn to drive the machinery while being supervised. The supervised driving needs to take place in an environment that resembles the existing environment which the operator works in. This atmosphere must include the kind of terrain she would be traveling on, have the same surrounding structures nearby, and the same vehicle and pedestrian traffic nearby also. There is no required minimum number of hours the driver has to drive while being supervised.
