Fork truck accidents continue to be a disturbing trend—and much more common than they should be. In fact, they’re to blame for between 75 and 100 worker deaths each year, plus an additional 35,000 to 62,000 injuries annually, according to OSHA. These numbers have only increased within the last decade. “If you want workers to feel comfortable working, then you also need them to feel safe,” says Jake Hall, a manufacturing industry leader better known as the Manufacturing Millennial. But creating safe warehouse environments isn’t as easy as it seems, especially when workers are under pressure to deliver products at any cost. |
