Today, we talk about a Accident at Work that could happen to anyone. A member of staff at a logistics firm had her life changed forever after an incident with a Forklift truck.
The warehouse did not have sufficient segregation between forklifts and pedestrians which meant a forklift was able to cross onto a pedestrian pathway causing a life-changing injury to the staff members leg.
The staff member was rushed to hospital where surgeons tried to save their leg but their foot had to be amputated. Over the next few months this injury required further operations on their leg, eventually meaning a further amputation.
In the UK, up to five people a day have a life-changing injury caused by Forklift Trucks ranging from loss of life, amputation and broken bones.
