Ask the Experts: A Q&A About Forklift Safety
Forklift Safety Day was June 10, but just because it’s over doesn’t mean we should stop thinking about and promoting safety around lift trucks, forklifts and other industrial trucks.
National Forklift Safety Day, sponsored by the Industrial Truck Association, served as a focal point for manufacturers to highlight the safe use of forklifts and the importance of operator training. The day provided an opportunity for the industry to educate customers, policymakers and the administration on forklift operating safety practices.
While National Forklift Safety Day created greater awareness of safe practices and encouraged safer behavior, we have to ensure that the safety message is shared 365 days a year.
