DAMAGED FORKLIFT OPERATOR

SEATS

Are you seeing damaged forklift operator seats at your

facility?  REQUEST QUOTE

Can you imagine riding in your car on a torn seat during an 8-hour road
trip? When we do not periodically replace damaged forklift operator seats, we
are essentially asking the same of our operators – every shift, every day.

HOW DOES A DAMAGED FORKLIFT OPERATOR SEAT AFFECT

PRODUCTION?

Forklift Operator Ergonomics

The loss of the seat’s cushion and support creates an uncomfortable ride with
exposed wires, increased heat and excessive vibration. As the shift goes on,
operators become sore and irritated which then decreases productivity.

Forklift Seat Belt

A damaged forklift operator seat may also pose a larger problem if the seat
belt doesn’t work. During an OSHA audit, a non-working seat belt may result
in a fine under the General Duty clause of 1910.178. More importantly, a
restraint system can be a life-saver in an event of tip-over or the forklift being
driven off a dock.

Invest in your forklift … and your employees.
