OSHA Compliance

Making your Daily Safety Checks easy

OSHA requires that all forklifts, material handling equipment and machinery have a safety check performed at the start of each shift – regulation 1910.178(q)(7).

?

Are you completing a safety check for every shift?

?

How are you managing exceptions (failed items)?

?

Do you have too much ‘Paper’ to track?

Daily OSHA Safety Checks

The Start-Manager system makes it easy because it ensures that you are performing a proper safety check at the start of each shift. You set up the number of shifts per day, and the start of the first shift, and Start-Manager does the rest.

  • Vehicle will not start until safety check is completed

  • Questions are displayed in random order to the operator

  • After a failed safety check, you can choose whether or not the vehicle can start (supervisor release) or simply record the information

  • Information can be easily retrieved via your existing Wi-Fi network

  • Focus only on the exceptions, not the paperwork

  • Eight (8) Pre-set categories (IC Forklift, Electric Forklift, Electric Pallet Truck, Scissor Lift, Utility Vehicle, Stationary Equipment, Dozer/Tractor, Overhead Crane)

  • Fully customizable through the smPORTAL

  • Assign questions to vehicles individually or in groups
