🚧 Road Safety Week 2025: Let’s Bring Forklift Safety into Focus 🚧

This , we’re reminded that safety doesn’t stop at the roadside — it starts in our workplaces too.

Forklift trucks are vital to UK industry, but they’re also involved in thousands of preventable accidents every year. Whether in warehouses, construction sites, or loading bays, every operator and pedestrian has a role to play in keeping people safe.

✅ Stay Alert: Always check your surroundings — visibility saves lives.

✅ Stick to Speed Limits: Even a few mph too fast can be dangerous in tight spaces.

✅ Use Designated Routes: Clear separation between pedestrians and forklifts reduces risk.

✅ Keep Training Fresh: Refresher courses ensure operators stay sharp and compliant.

Let’s use Road Safety Week as a reminder that every load, every lift, every move matters.

Safety isn’t just a policy — it’s a culture.

💬 Anti-Bullying Week: Building Respectful Workplaces, One Conversation at a Time

This week marks Anti-Bullying Week — a vital reminder that kindness, respect and empathy should be at the heart of every workplace culture.

Bullying in the workplace takes many forms. It can look like:

🔹 Verbal bullying – shouting, swearing or public criticism.

🔹 Exclusion – leaving colleagues out of meetings, projects or social events.

🔹 Undermining behaviour – spreading rumours, taking credit for others’ work, or persistent nit-picking.

🔹 Cyberbullying – hostile messages or comments through email or online platforms.

🔹 Abuse of power – unfair workloads, micromanagement or deliberate obstruction of progress.

Whatever form it takes, bullying creates an environment of fear and anxiety, making colleagues feel unsafe, undervalued and reluctant to speak up. Over time, it damages trust, morale and wellbeing — and it has no place in a healthy workplace.

It's important to remember we all have tough days — but a bad mood should never ruin someone else’s day. Respectful communication, even under pressure, is what defines professionalism and emotional intelligence at work.

Creating an environment where everyone feels respected and supported means:

✅ Encouraging open dialogue and active listening.

✅ Addressing conflict early and fairly.

✅ Modelling empathy and accountability as leaders.

✅ Recognising and celebrating diversity of thought and background.

✅ Providing clear training, policies and reporting routes to protect psychological safety.

A respectful workplace isn’t just “nice to have” — it’s essential for collaboration, innovation and retention.

This week (and every week), let’s commit to challenging harmful behaviours, supporting one another, and building workplaces where everyone can thrive without fear. 💙

🚜 Myth-Busting MHE Safety!

When it comes to Material Handling Equipment, there are plenty of myths that can lead to unsafe practices or unnecessary risks in the workplace. Let’s set the record straight 👇

🔸 Myth 1: “If I’m certified once, I’m certified for life.”

❌ Fact: Operator training must be refreshed regularly to maintain competence. The HSE recommends refresher training every 3–5 years, or sooner if there’s an incident or change in equipment.

🔸 Myth 2: “Only operators need MHE training.”

❌ Fact: Supervisors and managers also need to understand MHE safety to monitor standards, identify bad habits, and maintain compliance.

🔸 Myth 3: “Pre-use checks are optional.”

❌ Fact: Pre-use inspections are a legal requirement under PUWER. They’re essential for spotting faults before they cause accidents.

🔸 Myth 4: “It’s safe as long as no one gets hurt.”

❌ Fact: Near misses are early warnings. Reporting and investigating them prevents serious injuries down the line.

✅ Remember: Good MHE safety isn’t just about ticking boxes — it’s about creating a culture where everyone looks out for each other and takes responsibility for safe operation.
