TMHE’s 25 Tips for Working Safely with Counterbalanced Forklifts
Toyota Material Handling Europe (TMHE) values the safety of forklift drivers. Each year many avoidable accidents occur in the workplace due to safety negligence.
Our trucks feature an innovative System of Active Stability (SAS) design, which takes automatic corrective action when required. Whilst this reduces the risk of accidents, it does not alleviate forklift operators of their safety responsibilities.
This poster offers 25 simple tips that highlight the importance of working safely with counterbalanced forklift trucks.

Forklift Safety Through Images
There are approximately one million active forklifts in the United States. It is estimated that 11% of all forklifts will be involved in some type of accident each year*. Organizations like OSHA set regulations to make working conditions as safe as possible, but accidents still happen as a result of improper training, distracted operators, and malfunctioning equipment.
• 1 in 6 workplace deaths involve a forklift
• Forklifts account for around 85 deaths every year
• 34,900 serious injuries result from forklift accidents annually
• Non-serious injuries related to forklift accidents reach 61,800 each year
• Being crushed by an overturning forklift account for 42% of forklift deaths each year
• In their useful life, 90% of all forklifts will be involved in some type of accident. (this assumes only one accident per forklift, with the useful life of a truck being about 8 years)
If companies implemented more stringent training policies, OSHA estimates that about 70% of forklift accidents in the US could be prevented.
10 Forklift Safety Rules - A Review
We all know that many companies employ forklifts and that forklift operators do the main bulk of this kind of labor. These machines are powerful and there is always risk involved when they are used by people who have not been trained on operating them safely.
The National Traumatic Occupational Surveillance System registered 1530 worker deaths from forklift accidents between the years 1980 and 2001. Of these accidents, the biggest portion at 22%, most were caused by a forklift overturn.
Collisions between workers on the ground where the ground worker died accounted for 20% of deaths. Another 16% of deaths were caused by someone being crushed by the forklift and 9% by an operator falling from the forklift.
In fact, each year almost 100 people are killed and another 20,000 injured from forklift accidents. With proper training and diligent safety practices most of these deaths could have been prevented.
If you work around forklifts or are a forklift operator you should learn all you can about using these machines safely to prevent injury or death. All forklifts fall under the category of ‘powered industrial trucks,’ but they are not all the same. Forklifts can be either battery powered or run on gas or diesel fuel.
They also come in different sizes and have different functions according to the kind of work in which they will be used. Each type of lift is characterized by a class. Knowing which class of forklift you will work with should help you to understand its safety features and potential hazards.
We encourage you to ask your forklift drivers to take a look at these 10 easy-to-remember rules and to do their best to follow them at all times.

Forklift Safety Tips: Do's and Don'ts
Forklifts can be dangerous: they account for 25% of injuries at work. Many workplace accidents involve people being hit or run over by forklift trucks (typically when the forklift is reversing)because the driver did not see them. Owing to their size and weight, injuries resulting from forklifts are generally very serious. Accidents involving them are often caused by poor supervision and a lack of training. The following forklift safety tips will help you and those you work with stay safe around forklifts. Thanks to the Health and Safety Authority.
FORKLIFT SAFETY
Forklifts are extremely useful workplace vehicles, as long as they are used safely and appropriately by operators who are appropriately trained and competent to use them.
Forklifts can be dangerous: they account for 25% of injuries at work. Many workplace accidents involve people being hit or run over by forklift trucks (typically when the forklift is reversing) because the driver did not see them. Owing to their size and weight, injuries resulting from forklifts are generally very serious. Accidents involving them are often caused by poor supervision and a lack of training.
Always:
Wear appropriate personal protective clothing as provided by employer. Hard hat, protective footwear and high visibility clothing are recommended as a minimum when working around forklifts. Other equipment may be needed depending on the working environment
Report defects immediately to supervisor
Make sure work path is free of obstructions
Wear operator restraints, where fitted
Look all around before moving off
Look in the direction of travel
Avoid sudden stops and violent braking
Take care when driving on wet, icy , slippery or loose surfaces Slow down at corners, doorways, and at danger spots
Sound the horn several times when approaching blind corners, exits and entrances
Switch off and remove the key before leaving the forklift. Place the key in a safe location when driving task is completed
Apply the parking brake before leaving the forklift
Report any accidents or near misses to a supervisor
Park the forklift in a safe place, on level ground; never on a slope
Leave the forklift with the mast tilted forwards and the forks fully lowered, with the tips on the floor
Apply the parking brake, select neutral, switch off the engine and remove the key
Return keys or other activating devices to their place of safe-keeping
Report any malfunctions or defects immediately to a supervisor.
Assess the load before lifting. Check weight, size, load centre and security
Make sure that pallets are in good condition
Observe floor loading limits & Travel slowly when going down slopes
Find out the weight of the laden forklift
Check safe working load (SWL) of racking before placing loads onto it
Make sure load does not obstruct view. If it does, drive in reverse, looking in direction.
Make sure there is adequate clearance for the forklift and load, including overhead
Make sure the load is stable, Carry the load as close to ground as possible, Use controls smoothly & arms are fully inserted when travelling with a load
Position forks properly and as widely as possible
Make sure the fork Make sure the forklift is stopped before raising the load
Use suitable attachments for lifting unusual or wide loads
Ensure the forks face uphill when travelling up or down slopes with a load
Ensure the forks face downhill when travelling up or down slopes without a load
Adjust the tilt (where fitted) to suit the gradient and raise the forks to clear the ground
Forklift Safety: Passengers and Personnel Cages
Forklift trucks are for carrying loads only, and should never carry people. There is a reason there is only one seat, and that's for the forklift operator only. No passengers!
Additions such as fork extension and man basket or any modification to the forklift can affect the load capacity and safe operation of the truck. The forklift manufacturer prohibits such addition or alteration unless they allow it so. The manufacturer can write an approval to the customer or user permitting such addition.
Now in the event OSHA inspector visited your site premise and cited violation on the use of the man cage, the inspector wants you to produce documented evidence that the forklift to be fitted with man cage has a written approval from the manufacturer, aside from the record that such training has been supplied to the workers for the proper use of the work platform.
This is the common mistake the users commit when buying a man basket. They fail to contact the forklift manufacturer to secure written approval.

Toyota and Seven Parts Storage Techniques
Starting a collection without a plan is like building a house without a blueprint - it can get messy, fast. Imagine a parts department where items are just tossed into containers and shelved anywhere and everywhere. What a nightmare, right? This kind of chaos can lead to so much wasted time as employees scramble to find what they need. It can also mean parts get lost, which can delay services and leave customers unhappy. So, it's clear that keeping an orderly parts department is super important for smooth operations and satisfied customers. To combat these issues, Toyota, a leading forklift manufacturing company, offers seven steps to improve stocking methods. These steps are not merely suggestions but are vital tools in enhancing the overall operations of a parts department or stores.

Painting Rats White Angers Them to No End
There's an old saying that if you have rat problems you should catch one, paint it white, and then turn it loose. The other rats will disappear.
I was recently reading an Amish magazine about a farmer who tried the idea. He and his boys trapped a rat in the barn and then poured white paint over it before setting it free. A week or so later their dog started catching rats out in the fields around the homestead where they had never seen rats before. And, at the time his story was written, he had not seen any signs of rats around the barn for six weeks.

Forklift Tipovers: Primary Causes
When a forklifts center of gravity is directly above its wheelbase they are generally a very stable piece of equipment.
The most common forklift tip overs occur when the unit tips either forward or to one side.
Sideways Tip Overs occur when a forklifts centre of gravity shifts too far to the left or right of the wheelbase, which can occur during sharp or sudden turns.
Forward Tip Overs occur when a forklifts center of gravity shifts too far forward, which can happen when it is being driven down a ramp.

Infographic Warehouse Forklift Dangers
Working with a forklift is vigorous work, and not everyone can do it. In order to use a forklift, the operator needs to be certified and have a high-level understanding of OSHA forklift safety and training. Getting behind the wheel without proper training can result in accidents, injuries, and workplace catastrophes.
If you are in an industry that requires forklifts for heavy materials, you need to understand the risks and hazards of your job. Employers should always complete a forklift hazard risk assessment before letting the machine be used in a new area. Forklift operation safety is imperative for the well-being of everyone involved.

For precise loading and unloading, you can opt for the fork tip laser guide, high tilt indicator, and integrated carriage camera, all accessible through the user-friendly touchscreen display. The multi-directional reach truck is powered by efficient, low-maintenance AC motors, ensuring smooth operation and increased productivity.
OSHA Factsheet Lockout/Tagout
OSHA's Lockout/Tagout Fact Sheet describes the practices and procedures necessary to disable machinery or equipment to prevent the release of hazardous energy. The OSHA standard for The Control of Hazardous Energy (Lockout/Tagout) for general industry outlines specific action and procedures for addressing and controlling hazardous energy during the servicing and maintenance of machines and equipment.
Should You Buy or Rent Your Next Forklift?
When it comes to running an industrial operation, equipment can be one of the most expensive components. Forklifts are a prime example of this. However, there are options to consider before making a purchase. One option is to rent or lease the equipment. But how do you decide whether to buy or rent/lease a forklift? It's important to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of each option, as what might work best for one company may not be the best decision for another.
If you have the available funds and want to invest in creating assets owned by the business, buying equipment is usually an excellent decision. Not only does it provide the business with a tangible asset, but it can also be more cost-effective in the long run. This is especially true if you plan on using the equipment for a long period of time.
On the other hand, if you require specialized equipment that rental suppliers may not have readily available, purchasing may be the smarter choice. In this case, renting or leasing may not be a viable option. By purchasing the equipment, you have control over its use and can customize it to meet your specific needs.
It's important to carefully consider the advantages and disadvantages of each option before making a decision. By doing so, you can make sure that the choice you make is the right one for your business, both in the short and long term.

Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
