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.
