PEDESTRIAN

SAFETY TRAINING

An often-overlooked keystone in facility equipment safety plans is to train non-equipment operators to work safely around forklifts, electric pallet jacks, stand-up trucks, reach trucks, order pickers, tuggers, scissor lifts, swing reach trucks, and more.

Most new employees will have never worked around any type of powered industrial truck prior to starting with your company. Another portion of your employee base pays no attention to their safety around equipment, while yet another portion of your employees want to be safe but lack the knowledge, skills or training to do so effectively.

Absent dedicated environmental, health & safety personnel, it’s not like your employees are receiving training or proper/effective training.

Our pedestrian forklift safety training program teaches your employees the keys to recognizing unsafe conditions and working safely around the equipment. For example, the majority of new employees don’t know that a forklift steers from the rear of the truck, so they do not consider the tail swing radius hazard.

Employees may not understand the visual obstructions operators are faced with when driving material handling equipment. It’s imperative that you add this piece of the puzzle to your fork truck safety programs to ensure everyone’s safety.
