Overview
What this RAVS document does
Powered mobile equipment - loaders, forklifts, skid steers, excavators, and the like - moves heavy loads around workers, and that combination causes serious incidents when it is not controlled. Hiring clients require a powered mobile equipment answer because they need to know operators are trained, equipment is inspected, and the work is planned.
This document states your company's powered mobile equipment program in the structure an ISNetworld reviewer expects: operator competency and training, pre-use inspections, safe operating practices, how pedestrians are kept clear, and equipment maintenance. Each point ties back to Part 19 of the Alberta OHS Code. The file arrives in editable Word format - add your company name, confirm the company-specific details, and upload.

- Operator competency, training, and authorization
- Pre-use inspections of equipment
- Safe operating practices, including load and slope limits
- How pedestrians and other workers are kept clear of equipment
- Equipment maintenance and defect reporting

Practical guidance
How to pass the powered mobile equipment review the first time
- Use the Alberta version. The document is written to Part 19 of the Alberta OHS Code, the framework ISNetworld reviewers expect for Alberta work.
