Taking advantage of Virtual Reality to screen, train, and motivate forklift operators
Educating and reinforcing the safest practices in forklift operation is more crucial than ever in today’s rapidly growing distribution and warehousing facilities. Subject to the shortage of skilled labour and ever-increasing consumer demands, there are new ways to tackle these issues quickly and efficiently.
To develop a unique and interactive Virtual Reality (VR) tool that simplifies the process of training employees to operate forklifts to enhance their performance and delivery.
Forklift operation can seem simple. But, it is, in fact, complex if the worker is unaware of handling the equipment. Some challenges are: • Poor performance of unskilled workers. • Stagnant growth of the company. • High costs and resources involved with conventional training methods. • Risks to the lives of workers and the public. • Losses to the company due to poor handling of equipment and frequent repairs.
• Rwizen’s Virtual Reality-based forklift operator offers a new, modern and interactive tool that simplifies the training of employees for improved performance and efficiency. • Leveraging VR reduces the costs of hiring trainers, equipment, and time for training the crew. • There is no requirement for large open spaces or infrastructure for employees to learn and operate the equipment efficiently. • Leads to an increase in performance and sales and saves time. • An immersive and engaging experience builds better skills and confidence. • There is a safe space for multiple users to learn the operation of a forklift in short periods.
Opting for VR-based solutions to help train your workforce to handle forklifts is a smart way to save money and tackle the challenges mentioned above. In addition, this is a more effective method than theory or computer-based learning.
