CM Labs Simulations, a leading provider of simulation-based training across ports, construction and utilities sectors, has launched the Forklift Safety+ Add-On Module, setting a new standard in forklift safety simulation training. Unveiled on July 16, 2024, in Montreal, QC, the module introduces cutting-edge training scenarios that faithfully replicate real-world conditions, including the simulation of water and its effects on forklift operations, such as creating slippery surfaces in confined spaces.
Designed to enhance operator readiness, Forklift Safety+ offers a comprehensive curriculum covering crucial aspects like right-of-way principles, interaction with pedestrian and forklift traffic, and other critical safety protocols. By immersing operators in realistic worksite environments complete with potential hazards like wet surfaces, the module enables trainees to practice handling dangerous situations safely and without risk.
Beyond its advanced safety simulations, the module incorporates teachable moments, providing instantaneous guidance to trainees. This feature is particularly aimed at correcting behaviors promptly and preventing them from becoming entrenched habits.
“We know that forklift recertification is important for our clients,” said Lisa Barbieri, vice president of marketing & 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.”
Compatible with CM Labs' Intellia Forklift Training Pack, the Forklift Safety+ Add-On Module integrates seamlessly with various training hardware models, including Trainer, Edge Plus, Edge Max, Advantage, Master and MasterCab, expanding CM Labs' range of specialized add-on modules.
Lift & Access is part of the Catalyst Communications Network publication family.
