Local officials inspect facilities and impose violations under technical rules that duplicate federal standards. Employers must keep clear records to satisfy auditors, although the state's sprawling size complicates organizing in-person training sessions.
Work environments include transportation hubs along Interstate 80 and processing plants tapping the planet's premier trona reserve. Power production sites in areas like Sublette County or the Powder River Basin commonly use telehandlers and rough-terrain lifts.
Online training is the formal instruction only. Under Wyoming OSHA's powered industrial truck rule, which must be at least as effective as federal 29 CFR 1910.178(l), your employer gives practical training on the truck you will drive, evaluates you in your workplace and certifies you, at least every three years. Wyoming OSHA inspectors check this for private and public employers in Wyoming.
