POWERED INDUSTRIAL TRUCK TRAINING

Temporary workers are entitled to the same protections under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (the OSH Act) as all other covered workers. When a staffing agency supplies temporary workers to a business, typically, the staffing agency and the staffing agency’s client commonly referred to as the host employer are considered joint employers of those workers. Both employers are responsible for determining the conditions of employment and complying with the law. In these joint employment situations, questions regarding how each employer can fulfill their duty to comply with the standard are common. This bulletin addresses what both the staffing agency and the host employer can do to provide powered industrial truck training to temporary workers under OSHA general industry standard 29 CFR 1910.178(l), Powered Industrial Trucks or 29 CFR 1926.602(d) in construction (the standard).
