forklift safety

Manufacturing companies and small businesses rely on industrial Forklifts for lifting and transporting their product around the facility. The sheer power of these fork trucks makes them invaluable, but dangerous to personal that are not trained properly to handle such heavy machinery.

Every year a large number of Forklift accidents happen, not just in Canada and the United States, but throughout the world. Some of these accidents are related to not doing a Forklift inspection before operating the lift truck.
