Forklifts are an integral part any facility that uses pallets, and it's critical for operators to follow the rules to ensure safety for all employees: -Always give pedestrians the right of way -Always go slow and honk the horn when approaching pedestrians. Be sure to make and maintain eye contact. -Always go slow and sound the horn at intersections -Always keep a 3-foot buffer around a forklift -Be aware of the rear swing and aisle obstruction -Always watch for side clearance. Be aware of the width of each load and allow enough distance to maneuver without incident. -Always be aware of low clearance, especially when traveling in and out of trailers. #safetytipoftheweek #worksafety #stayontopofitall #forkliftsafety #workplacesafety

It’s World Day for Safety and Health at Work! Time to take a closer look at how pedestrians and forklifts can safely work together in the warehouse. Because no human can have their eyes everywhere at once. But technology can – like our Linde Safety Guard✔️ How does it work? Units (transmitter and receiver) are attached to the truck and work clothing and warn immediately if there is risk of collision. #safety #safetyguard #worldday #safetyandhealth

Happy National Forklift Safety Day! Stay safe in your warehouse by following these steps to protect pedestrians and reduce forklift injuries at your worksite: — Remind all employees that they need to be aware of their surroundings at all times — Train forklift operators in the proper use of their vehicles and how to avoid striking pedestrians — Perform regular inspections of lift trucks to detect any defects in steering, brakes, horn or backup alarms — Whenever possible, separate pedestrians from lift trucks by providing separate pedestrian walkways with railings or other protective barriers — Install convex mirrors at blind aisle intersections — Keep aisles and passageways clear #ForkliftSafety #AlbanyInternational #WeavingOurDestiny

Commissioner of the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles | Transformational Leader | Bringing years of experience in elevating performance, enhancing CX, and driving strategic growth
The Brake Safety Day campaign conducted by the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance highlights the critical importance of maintaining proper brake systems in commercial trucks and buses. The fact that 11.6% of inspected vehicles were placed out of service due to brake-related violations is concerning and shows the need for such safety initiatives. It's reassuring to see regulatory bodies taking proactive measures to ensure road safety. #BrakeSafetyDay #Results #RoadSafety #Trucks #CommercialDrivers
