Scafftag's performance pack
A UK supplier of equipment safety tagging and monitoring systems is offering a free safety assessment for forklifts. Scafftag is hoping the offer will help reduce the number of forklift fatalities and accidents in the UK by making companies more aware of what they need to do to protect workers.

Scafftag's offer is in support of the Forklift Truck Association's (FLTA) push to cut accident rates in the UK.

The pack contains a free inspection guide poster, factsheet and monitoring system guides to help companies improve their inspection records. The one-on-one expert assessment addresses the latest legal requirements and good practices to help companies determine their compliance.

The expert also assesses current systems and processes for managing comprehensive forklift inspections and daily checks.

The pack will enable companies to equip themselves with the correct tools to inspect, record and monitor their assets on-site.

Jonathan Edwin, general manager of Scafftag, says sometimes it takes a fatality or a national awareness campaign like FLTA's National Forklift Safety Week to remind people that there are better approaches to site inspections.

"Our Scafftag Equip forklift pack and a range of other advice are freely available from our website, but we also recognise that every company is unique," he says. "That is why we also encourage firms to take up our free on-site assessment, which systematically applies legal requirements and good practices to inspections and identifies how well current processes fulfil them.

"The visits are pre-arranged and carried out by an expert who will make recommendations at the end of the visit. Past experience shows they can be a vital tool to benchmark and improve business performance."
