Australian forklift insiders are preparing for Forklift Safety Week, which will be marked in the third week of September this year.
Of course, in the shadow of COVID-19, the events will be staged online.
While Australia is a small market and far away from the materials handling hubs of the United States and Europe, the upcoming event is a reminder of the need to continue highlighting safety issues.
It is unfortunate that forklift safety is not marked globally on the same day or week - but at least the efforts of Forkliftaction have succeeded in aligning commemorations on both sides of the Atlantic - in the UK and in the US. Next stop is Europe, Asia, Africa, South America, the Middle East and Australasia.
Come on folks, let's get it together for forklift safety!
