Removing the risk

Easilift Loading Systems has raised awareness of the importance of designing out risk in the loading bay at an event organised by the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health and chaired by the Freight Transport Association.

The company's managing director Rob Fay (left) also explored the benefits of proactive safety procedures such as the Dock Management System in his talk, given during the event: Dock Leveller Safety: the Happy Marriage of Vehicle and Loading Dock.

Fay had first-hand experience, of a workplace fatality early in his career.

"I'm now in a position to do something about it, and I am delighted by the opportunity to address my peers on this vital issue."
