A mobile-equipment course that rehearses the decisions behind struck-by and rollover incidents — pre-use checks, blind spots, traffic separation, and stable operation — across 11 interactions. It teaches operators and ground workers to read the machine and its danger zone before it moves.
Mobile equipment safety training aligned with the Manitoba WSH Act, WSH Regulation MR 217/2006 Part 22 (Powered Mobile Equipment) and Part 20 (Vehicular and Pedestrian Traffic), and CSA B335 (Safety Standard for Lift Trucks). It covers the equipment that moves on a worksite — excavators, loaders, skid steers, dozers, lift trucks, and similar — and the hazards that make it deadly to the people working around it: large blind zones, ground instability, overhead hazards, pedestrian interaction, and rollover.
Equip workers and supervisors to recognize mobile-equipment hazards, complete a pre-use inspection, keep pedestrians and machines separated, manage site traffic, and control rollover risk — and to understand that unsupervised operation requires an in-person competency evaluation.
Operators and ground workers around mobile equipment — loaders, skid steers, telehandlers, and utility vehicles on sites and in yards.
Passing the final test issues a QR-verified certificate, valid for one year. Review training at least annually and whenever the equipment, attachments, site, or the operator changes. The in-person operation evaluation is renewed per the employer program. No exact mandatory theory-hour minimum is set in Manitoba law — industry/provider standard applies.
This certificate records completion of awareness-level knowledge training in mobile equipment safety. It does not authorize the holder to operate any mobile equipment. Unsupervised operation requires task-specific training on that equipment and a competent-person evaluation, and that in-person operation evaluation is renewed per the employer program; the manufacturer's procedures and the data-plate rated capacity always govern.
About 1 hour 30 minutes online, over 5 modules, at your own pace. It ends with a final test that needs 80% to pass.
One year from the day you pass. Review training at least annually and whenever the equipment, attachments, site, or the operator changes.
