BEWARE OF “SAFETY TRADE-OFF”
Chesterfield, UK…
A director at the UK’s biggest forklift truck trainer has slammed the “dangerous lie” he believes is responsible for hundreds of forklift truck accidents. Stuart Taylor of Mentor Training warns that firms are losing money and putting lives in danger because they believe there’s a trade-off between safety and profitability.
“Every day workers are being hospitalised because they, or their manager, think of safety as a cost to be minimised,” says Stuart. “The truth is, improving safety saves on day-to-day damage like racking damage, forklift repair bills and damaged stock – instantly making you more profitable.”
