The new Forklift Safety+ Add-On Module leads the industry with realistic training scenarios and comprehensive exercises using teachable moments to streamline recertification.

CM Labs Simulations, the leading vendor for simulation-based training in the ports, construction, and utilities industries, today announced the launch of the Forklift Safety+ Add-On Module. The Forklift Safety+ Add-On Module offers the most sophisticated forklift safety simulation training available and stands as the first simulated training solution to accurately replicate water and its inherent properties, creating slippery conditions in tight corners.

Forklift Safety+ provides a curriculum that ensures a higher level of readiness for the field. Operators can use the training module to work on right-of-way principles, interacting with pedestrian and forklift traffic, and many other important aspects of forklift safety. By simulating realistic worksite environments and their hazards, such as wet surfaces, the add-on module allows operators to practice dangerous scenarios in a safe and risk-free environment.

“We know that forklift recertification is important for our clients,” said Lisa Barbieri, Vice President of Marketing & Strategic Partnerships at CM Labs. “We wanted to provide a solution that would offer advanced exercises with new challenges designed to keep operators safe and their skills fresh.”

In addition to providing advanced safety exercises, the add-on module also provides teachable moments to trainees.

“The teachable moments included in Forklift Safety+ are a unique aspect of this add-on module,” said Devon Van de Kletersteeg, Product Manager for Ports, “The on-the-spot guidance they offer is designed to catch negative behaviors before they become habits.”

The Forklift Safety+ Add-On Module joins CM Labs’ expanding add-on module line. It requires the Intellia Forklift Training Pack to run and can be installed on the following CM Labs equipment training hardware: Trainer, Edge Plus, Edge Max, Advantage, Master, and MasterCab.
