Hey everyone,

How dangerous are forklifts in the workplace? What are the biggest risks, and what safety measures help prevent accidents? Would love to hear your experience with those on the field.

Hey Sean, forklifts can be pretty dangerous if not used properly, especially with limited visibility or if operators aren’t trained. Biggest risks include tipping over, hitting obstacles, or accidents with pedestrians. Proper training, regular maintenance, and clear workplace signage are key to minimizing accidents!
