Whilst you are looking for a forklift in and around Pembrokeshire you might like to be aware that a lift truck driver working at a sawmill was fined £1,750 after an incident in which he was driving a lift truck with a stack of 12 modular sheds. The sheds obscured the drivers vision and as a result he hit a fellow employee with the load causing a fractured pelvis, cuts and bruises. It is important that individuals are aware that they, as well as their employer, have duties under the law to take reasonable care of the health and safety of others who may be affected by their acts or omissions at work. In this case the employer had employed an in-house lift truck trainer and the driver had received regular refresher training and re-testing and as a result it was the employee not the employer that was fined for this incident.

If you are trying to find a forklift in and around Pembrokeshire it might be worth considering that if you are operating your lift truck in an area with doorways 6ft or 8ft high then you obviously wont be able to use a lift truck that has a mast which is over 10ft tall when fully collapsed in its normal ground travel position and expect it to pass through the doorway. Before choosing your lift truck, measure all the doorways and openings that it will need to fit through.
