  • Baseball Caps when driving forklifts

    This might be taking the original post on a different tangent, but I would like to know about hard hats in forklifts. We have a policy that doesn't require hard hats in the forklifts because the forklift drivers said they couldn't fit in the cab with a hard hat - so it was decided, if you're in a forklift you don't have to wear a hard hat in the yard (moving steel and mesh), however, this has also overflowed to the warehouse, where the team are working in high racks, and their reason is visibility with a hard hat. The pallets are all wrapped to stop anything from falling out when moving the pallet, but I'm not sure this is the safest approach. Would appreciate your input..
  • "Digital" OHSMIS - Occupational Health & Safety Systems used by companies in NZ?
    I use ecoPortal which manages all of our H&S Activities from incident management, risk registers & reviews, committee meetings, inspections, Site Specific Safety Plans, corrective actions and contractor management. This has all been customised to fit the requirements of our business. I haven't looked into the API capabilities in detail though, so can't comment on how it integrates.
