Nov. 2014 – BELLEVILLE, Ont. – Our two recently released programs each tackle an important safety issue for employees.

Half of all fall-related deaths are from heights of less than 25 feet. This is why all workers, especially those working in industries with high rates of injuries, should be educated on proper fall protection. Personal Fall Protection: Your Lifelines provides important information on Personal Fall Arrest Systems (PFAS), hazard recognition, and the fall hazard control process.

Every year forklifts cause an estimated 35,000 serious injuries and almost 100 deaths. Forklifts: Understanding the Risks describes the common hazards of operating forklifts. It reviews the importance of understanding how to correctly operate forklifts, factors that can lead to incidents, and the importance of inspecting vehicles.

Both programs are available in DVD and streaming media formats. Additional information or a free preview is available by calling Electrolab Training Systems at 1-800-267-7482 or emailing safety@electrolab.ca.
