A 571kg reality check<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

On a counterbalance course, we trained a team dealing with tight racking installed close to perimeter walls \u2014 a setup that left no room for broadside Euro pallet placement without undercutting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don’t skip your equipment safety checks\u200b<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

During a recent site visit, I came across several pieces of material handling equipment (MHE) with no evidence of a valid thorough examination (TE) \u2014 a legal requirement that\u2019s often overlooked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why do experienced forklift operators still have accidents?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s tempting to think that once an operator has years of experience, the risk of accidents drops away. But the reality is very different \u2014 some of the most serious incidents I\u2019ve come across have involved highly experienced drivers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spot the hazard before it becomes a headline…<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

On recent operator training we identified a serious hazard: pallet racking beams installed without locking pins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The photos show beams resting unsecured. This kind of hazard isn\u2019t always visible at a glance \u2014 but in a busy warehouse, it poses a high risk of failure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One knock from a truck or pallet and that level could drop, bringing tonnes of stock down with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Safety starts with the right risk assessment<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Last week, we delivered four MEWP training courses for different teams, and it really highlighted an important point: safety isn\u2019t just about knowing how to operate the machine, it\u2019s about understanding the risks of your specific job at height.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
