Herc Partnership

We’re excited to announce the IATSE Training Trust Fund’s partnership with Herc Rentals, which provides us with access to a set discounted training rate of $150 per person across the IATSE. This rate is available to IATSE locals and workers. Discounted partnership pricing applies to standard trainings that are widely used throughout the industry. Herc Rentals offers many standard safety trainings, including:

  • MEWP (Aerial Lifts: Boom & Scissor)

  • Warehouse Forklift

  • Rough Terrain Forklift

  • Skid Steer

  • And more!

 

Contact the TTF if your local is in Alaska, Puerto Rico, or remote areas of Canada or USA.

How Do We Get the Discount?

Herc Safety Training Request Form

Click on the button below to fill out the Herc’s Safety Training Request form. You can also fill out the form on your phone by scanning the QR code.

Herc Safety Trainers are located across the IATSE and can travel for training to Herc Rental locations. After completing the Safety Training Request form, you will be connected to the trainer in your region.

Requirements to Get the Discount

  • Training requests must be submitted to Herc Rentals at least two weeks in advance of the course date to guarantee the partnership discount.

  • Group trainings must be held in person on a weekday at a Herc Rental location within their normal business hours.

  • Training on weekends should be arranged at your local union site. Keep in mind, Herc has course minimums that must be met to qualify for the partnership discount.

  • Locals are required to set up an account with Herc. This will make the invoicing process post-class easier.

 

Funding Support

If you are a local officer interested in utilizing Course Reimbursement to defray the cost of your course or you are an individual worker interested in Certification Reimbursement, please follow the steps below.
