CM Labs Simulations launched the Forklift Safety+ Add-On Module, what is said to be the first simulated training solution to accurately replicate water and its inherent properties, creating slippery conditions in tight corners.
“We know that forklift recertification is important for our clients,” says Lisa Barbieri, VP of marketing and strategic partnerships at CM Labs. “We wanted to provide a solution that would offer advanced exercises with new challenges designed to keep operators safe and their skills fresh.”
“We designed the add-on module to provide teachable moments for on-the-spot guidance. It’s a unique aspect of our training solution that helps address negative behaviors before they become habits,” adds Trinidad Ruiz, senior product manager for construction.
Key takeaways:
- Forklift Safety+ provides a curriculum that ensures a higher level of readiness for the field. Operators can use the training module to work on right-of-way principles, interacting with pedestrian and forklift traffic, and other important aspects of forklift safety.
- By simulating realistic worksite environments and their hazards, such as wet surfaces, the add-on module allows operators to practice dangerous scenarios in a safe and risk-free environment.
- The add-on module also provides teachable moments to trainees.
