Driving Safety

According to the National Safety Council, motor vehicle crashes are the No. 1 cause of occupational fatalities and the leading cause of death for ages 2-39 and ages 50-72. 51小黄车takes driving safety seriously. If you are involved in a motor vehicle accident with a 51小黄车vehicle or while on a business trip for UNE, please contact Risk Management at your earliest convenience. (This includes if you have damage to your rental car while on a business trip.)

In order to drive a 51小黄车van, car, or other such vehicle you must be cleared by the 51小黄车Safety and Security Department and obtain the proper background checks and training. Please contact Safety and Security to learn more about the 51小黄车Vehicle Policy.  

Fork Truck Information

51小黄车operates fork trucks in a few different departments on campus. All fork truck operators must obtain a fork truck license through the EHS department, which contracts the training through a vendor. University employees who operate forklifts must be trained and certified every three years. This course covers maintenance, inspection and safe operation of powered industrial trucks. Since it is an operator safety course, a written test and a driving test must be successfully completed to receive an operator's license. Please contact EHS for more information.
