We all know how dangerous loading docks can be. Even as far back as 2017, 25% of injuries were because of safety on the docks. The reasons for worker injuries haven’t changed either: separations between the truck and dock, forklifts falling off, or when the forklift backs off the platform and falls on the forklift operator. There are measures that can be taken in order to ensure OSHA loading dock requirements. One of the best ways is with the SIERA AI forklift safety system. How?
Not only does the SIERA AI reduce collisions, it also ensures OSHA compliance for the forklift and anything else you need to ensure compliance for, such as loading docks. The AI forklift safety system has a digital checklist for inspection purposes. Most often we talk about the digital checklist for forklift inspections, but because the system allows for unlimited checklists, you can use a checklist to ensure that prior to the forklift operator working on the dock with the forklift, that the operator uses the checklist to ensure OSHA load dock requirements are met. There’s no extra expense. It’s all included in the forklift safety system. Contact us today to get started with OSHA compliance.
