Frequently asked questions

Do you deliver Forklift Operator training in Milton?

Yes. Syon Safety delivers Forklift and Lift Truck Operator Training on-site at Milton workplaces and throughout Halton Region. Sessions run 4 to 8 hours depending on class and prior experience and can be scheduled around your shift pattern.

Is a forklift licence required in Ontario?

Ontario does not issue a government forklift licence. The Occupational Health and Safety Act requires employers to ensure operators are competent, which is demonstrated through training and a documented practical evaluation.

How often does forklift certification need renewing?

Three years is the widely accepted industry standard for refresher training. Re-evaluation is also expected after an incident, a near miss, or a change of equipment class.

Can you train operators on our own forklifts?

Yes, and it is the preferred approach. Practical evaluation on your own equipment and in your own aisles produces a more meaningful competency assessment.
