Safety Training

Safety is our number 1 priority here at Hytopz


We are in the business to keep our customers safe.  We want to ensure that the men and women using Scaffolding, Telehandlers and Aerial Work Platforms (Boom lifts - Scissor lifts) can do their jobs efficiently and safely.  The more people understand the equipment they are using the better they can do their jobs.

Accidents and incidents are preventable.  Safety training in the Spokane area for Scaffolding, Telehandlers and Aerial Work Platforms is scheduled 4 times a year. 

The class outline for Telehandlers & Aerial Work Platforms includes:
  • Safety Precautions
  • User Responsibilities
  • Machine Preparation & Inspection
  • Machine Operation
  • Towing
  • Emergency Procedures
  • Machine Specification & Operator Maintenance
  • Course time - 4 hours
After passing a written test and hands-on practical, the student will be issued a card valid for 3-years that meets both OSHA regulations and ANSI/SIA standards.

Scaffold orientation is designed to orient the worker to the "Code of Safe Practices" developed for the industry by the Scaffold and Access Industry Association, Inc. (SAIA).  The class is intended to address some of the many practices and conditions encountered in the use of steel frame scaffolding.  Upon completion of the safety training the worker will be able to identify different types of scaffolding and the hazards associated in the workplace.
