Forklifts are Involved in Construction Injuries throughout Indiana
Posted on September 21, 2011 by Ronald Todd
Forklifts used on jobsites are a major factor in a multitude of construction fatalities every year.
Forklift workplace accidents happen for a variety of reasons, such as:
- Lift trucks falling off of loading docks;
- Lift trucks striking workers;
- Lift trucks losing their loads and striking a worker; and
- Workers falling off lift trucks.
All of these forklift accidents could have been prevent if:
- Safe operating procedures were followed;
- Safety rules were implemented and enforced; and
- Adequate training was provided to every worker on the jobsite.
Preventing forklift accidents can save countless construction workers and their families from experiencing catastrophic injuries, i.e. severe traumatic brain injury, quadriplegia injury, paraplegia injury, wrongful death injury or other severe and permanent injuries.
