Forklifts are a heavy piece of industrial equipment that are operated by a forklift certified driver. Because forklifts are often operated in areas that have other pedestrians and obstacles, they can pose a dangerous safety hazard to the driver and others around. Especially because they’re a few thousand pounds and have a certain science behind driving them while lifting and lowering loads.
This forklift safety tips video covers the basics regarding forklift safety, and goes into detail about what to do and what not to do in regards to forklift operation. This can be used as a refresher or as a toolbox talk to remind your team about the dangers of forklifts and how to work with, and around them, safely.
