The importance of ensuring eye contact...

Concerned about keeping pedestrians safe at a loading dock with lots of forklift traffic? Here are five tips to get you started. https://lnkd.in/gG5pXRUM

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

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

When you need a heavy duty truckstop barrier (that lasts!) If you enjoy replacing/ repairing wheel stops, sorry, this one will wreck your fun. They can be done in individual truck bays, or in continuous lengths like the below. They don't crack and crumble like concrete ones either. The size and shape is perfect for the driver to feel the stop - rather than riding straight over it. #solutions #barriers #DEFLEX #industrialsafetybarriers #trucks
