| description | OSHA estimates that approximately 680,400 lift truck accidents occur each year. The hard fact is that most of these accidents can be prevented with proper training and the adoption of best practices and safe work habits. Six primary areas businesses should focus on to help create a safe environment for lift truck operation are discussed, including: 1. Operator training, 2. Supervision, 3. Equipment maintenance, 4. Pre-use inspection, 5. Laws and standards, and 6. Constant workplace evaluation. By focusing your attention on these six key areas, you can significantly increase the safety of your workplace. Creating a safer environment for lift truck operation can help you avoid operator injuries and equipment, facility and product damage, as well as protect you from possible liabilities and fines and even lower your insurance and maintenance costs. |
