Forklifts are essential in many workplaces, but limited visibility at blind corners can create serious hazards when operators and pedestrians share the same space.
To address this risk, a Saskatchewan employer installed proximity sensors that trigger flashing warning lights when a forklift or pedestrian approaches an intersection. The visual alert helps workers recognize potential hazards before entering the area.
The result was a simple but effective improvement that enhanced visibility, increased hazard awareness, and helped reduce the risk of forklift-related collisions.
