Crown Equipment<\/a>, one of the world\u2019s largest material handling companies, is using this month\u2019s National Forklift Safety Day,\u00a0sponsored by the Industrial Truck Association (ITA), to kick off an ongoing educational campaign designed to raise awareness of important forklift safety topics.<\/p>\n

The campaign is built around the availability of new safety resources and content on crown.com. Beginning on National Forklift Safety Day, a series of safety-related articles will be posted to Crown<\/a>\u2019s blog. Topics include \u201cfive steps to improving forklift safety\u201d and \u201ctips for engaging operators in forklift safety.\u201d A new product safety features guide will be available for download on Crown<\/a>\u2019s safety page. The campaign also includes a series of educational safety posters, featuring tips on docking, tipovers, speed and more, that will be released sequentially for download so end users can display within their facility.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe appreciate the important role the ITA plays in organizing National Forklift Safety Day and have enjoyed collaborating with other OEMs to create a unified message that increases awareness of forklift safety,\u201d said Jim Mozer, senior vice president, Crown Equipment<\/a> and this year\u2019s ITA National Forklift Safety Day task force chairman. \u201cThis annual event is elevating the critical message that safety needs to be top-of-mind every day and is helping everyone understand that any vehicle or technology can be unsafe when used improperly and not supported by the proper safety training, policies and best practices.\u201d<\/p>\n

As part of the campaign, Crown<\/a> will also be highlighting customer stories that feature safety best practices and impactful results. One of the first will be PEER Bearing, a bearing manufacturer that used Crown<\/a>\u2019s InfoLink fleet and operator management system, as well as Crown<\/a>‘s Demonstrated Performance TrainSafe Train-the-Trainer course, to advance its safety culture.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe PEER Bearing story is a good reminder that for successful safety programs, it is not just about the quality of the training, but also the breadth and accessibility of the training,\u201d said Ron Grisez, director of product safety, Crown Equipment<\/a>. \u201cThis is why Crown<\/a> offers the training materials and training not just for the operators, but also for trainers, supervisors and even pedestrians. It\u2019s why we offer training through a network of training centers, company-owned branches and independent dealers; providing accessibility across the country.\u201d<\/p>\n
