G.T. RENTALS Safety Mission Statement: G.T. Rentals is fully committed to promoting a safe working environment for its customers and its employees. G.T. Rentals expects and requires all its customers and employees to adhere to all safety rules and procedures promulgated by OSHA and G.T. Rentals safety mandates.

 

Customers are expected to submit written verification that they fulfill the pertinent safety requirements with regards to large motorized equipment. These requirements would be disclosed to prospective customers before any rentals are agreed upon. G.T. Rentals may refuse to rent various equipment, if the prospective customer fails to provide evidence that he or she is certified to operate the specific equipment.

 

In the event the prospective customer fails to provide such evidence, the customer may be asked to obtain training from an approved trainer outside the jurisdiction of G.T. Rentals, or he may be asked to attend a customized training session at G.T. Rentals, before any rental is approved.

 

 

 

G.T. Rentals offers Aerial Equipment Training and Certifications via its in-house training program. See details on the right column on this page under the heading of AERIAL EQUIPMENT TRAINING AVAILABE. If a customer needs a specific safety training course not available at G.T. Rentals, G.T. Rentals would provide customer with information where to attend such a safety course.

However, in this case G.T. Rentals is only a provider of information and bears no responsibility as to the qualification and validity of the outside trainer.   Having said that, it is always G.T. Rentals practice to recommend to our customers only highly reputable trainers.

GT Rental employees are required to attend safety meetings conducted by an authorized trainer, and must always be duly certified to operate any forklifts and aerial equipment. We encourage and expect every employee who was not properly trained on aerial equipment to avoid use of the equipment until he/she obtains proper training and advise employer of the situation. 

If we can be helpful in any safety issues, please call us at 718-782-7887 and speak to our safety specialist.

We wish all a healthy and safe working environment, and don’t forget:

BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY!

AERIAL EQUIPMENT
TRAINING AVAILABLE

CLASSES:  The certification training is comprised of two parts, the Theoretical and the Practical part. We provide Aerial Equipment Training (AWP) / Mobile Equipment Work Platform (MEWP)training services in group or individual classes. Classes are held on premises only for the Practical part of the training. About 80% of class work which pertains to the Theoaretical part of the training, can be done online, at user's pace and convenience, which requires about four (4)  to six (6) ours to complete.  For details on how to schedule your employees' training session, please give us a call at (718-782-7887) or perferrably email us at: customerservice@gtrentals.com.  

PRICE: Individual classes are more costly vs group classes. Therefore, we recommend that interested parties or companies form a group of up to six to eight individuals at least, in order to lower cost substantially. Please call in or email us to confirm your actual prices in order to remit the correct payment and reserve your seat.

PRACTICAL CLASS DURATION: Completion of the practical part (test) of the training takes about an our or so, and it's done here at our location at 310 Nassau Ave. Brooklyn, NY. More time may be required if trainer deems to be necessary.

TRAINING REQUIREMENTS: The training is broken down into two parts, theoretical and practical. All attendees must have sufficient knowledge of the English language, in both, speaking and writing, and must be in good physical condition. If a trainee fails to pass on any of the two parts of the training, that is, theoretical and/or practical, no certificate would be issued to such individual. He has to take the class over again at a reduced rate.

CERTIFICATION: When an individual successfully completes this aerial program, he/she receives a certificate of completion that qualifies him/her to operate aerial equipment, such as personnel platforms or telescopic material lifts similar to the type they were trained on.
