Safety tour of Hyster-Yale's Northern Ireland facility

Forklift safety measures in action

National Forklift Safety Day is all about spotlighting businesses that are going above and beyond to implement exceptional safety standards. Hyster-Yale, a globally recognised manufacturer of state-of-the-art lift trucks, is working diligently to make its Craigavon facility a prime example of how to keep workers safe – and you can learn more about its safety protocols in this informative video.  

With valuable insights from the facility’s Plant Manager, Health & Safety Officer and other members of staff, this short film showcases several practical steps Hyster is prioritising to protect its workforce, including: 
 
  • Separation of counterbalance trucks from pedestrians  
  • The introduction of automated, driverless trucks  
  • Operator assistance functionality  
  • Fostering a safety culture through the ANTAS (“A no to accidents”) campaign
