Are Forklift-Related Incidents Hurting Your Bottom Line?
You can Eliminate by Automating Your Warehouse with Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs)
1) Unsafe operation
Driving with an elevated load, driving too fast, driving too close to platform edges and not following loading dock safety procedures are some of the most common reasons for a citation.
JBT AGV Solution:
Eliminates human errors. Each vehicle drives at a consistent speed on a defined road system.
2) Failure to provide refresher training
Every forklift operator must receive refresher training every three years - sooner if they are involved in an accident, near-miss, or when reported for reckless behavior. Forklift operators may also require additional training when they are asked to operate a different class of forklift, or if a change in the workplace has created a new hazard.
JBT AGV Solution:
No training required, and eliminates costs associated with training.
3) Missing/inadequate operator certification
All forklift operators must have an OSHA-approved forklift certification for the class of forklift they utilize.
JBT AGV Solution:
No certifications required.
