Let’s clear the air!
Safety First - 22 Jun 2007 (#315) It's a busy but average Friday afternoon. Quite a large shipment has just been received and it all has to be put away before anyone goes home.

One good apple
Safety First - 15 Mar 2007 (#301) You have probably heard the proverb 'one bad apple can spoil the barrel"' but have you seen the effect one good apple can have on the others? "Apples" are a metaphor for forklift operators and the "good" ones are those operators who take the time do their jobs safely and in accordance with their training.
