Case Study:Transport Ops Put Food & Drink Companies at Risk
The HSE media centre shows the food and drink industry incurred costs and fines of over £270,000 in 2015 for preventable incidents involving forklift trucks, telehandlers and lorries; not to mention the countless individuals whose lives were affected as a result. In 2016, RTITB is asking food and drink manufacturers to tackle this problem by dedicating just one day to making their business safer and more efficient with a HealthCheck. Our Case Study examines recent incidents in food and drink businesses, looks at the resulting fines and what prevention was needed and how much it might have cost.
