Promote Operator Safety and Facilitate Access in Truck Loading Processes by Selecting the Proper Truck Fall Protection Equipment
|
| Company: | Benko Products Inc |
| Operators loading and unloading tall vehicles such as isotainers, tanker trucks and railcars require two things: sufficient access and safety, including fall protection. Falling from atop one of these vehicles—which may be several stories tall—could result in serious injury or death. OSHA regulations mandate that employers must provide fall protection equipment that addresses the risk factors present. Ensuring operator stability during loading and unloading is also crucial, as dry bulk and liquid products are heavy and often awkward to handle—making a stable working surface all the more necessary. Safety also includes protection from adverse weather conditions, including rain and heavy wind. |
