More and more we read in publications, over the internet and hear from word of mouth in the business community, about OSHA’s increased activity and fines being issued for forklift violations and lack of proper training. Just recently a company in NH was fined $119,500.00 in a forklift related death of an employee. A company in Florida received fines totaling over $45,000.00 just for forklift violations. I believe this is an important issue not only for the safety of employees but also for the bottom line. So I have decided to do something out of character in the business world. I’ve decided to help both employee and company by providing Free OSHA Forklift Certification. That’s correct, free OSHA forklift certifications. Why? That’s simple; because it’s the right thing to do. My thought is, possessing the expertise and the resources to do so, why not. If I’m able to prevent an injury or perhaps even a death and help businesses avoid costly fines that could jeopardize their business and even cost workers jobs, then that’s what I should be doing, after all this is my line of business. It makes perfect business sense to me, by helping others I am endearing myself and my company to new potential customers and building a solid foundation for future business. If you’re in the greater Atlanta area and are interested in receiving this service contact me and I'll set it up.
Hello Mr. Charlie Miller,
ReplyDeleteYour offer of providing forklift certification free of charge is great. I have been looking to attain my certificate after using a forklift for almost seven years until I picked up another job - temporarily. Returning to warehousing and dispatching, I only wish the state of Arizona was closer to Atlanta. Certainly many people accept your offer!
Will you continue posting forklift updates and such? I look to start working with Towne Air Freight soon and will stay connected with great groups through linked in. Thanks again!!!
