Whilst you are looking for Toyota Forklifts in and around Borders you might like to be aware that a forklift driver working at a sawmill was fined £1,750 after an incident in which he was driving a forklift truck with a stack of 12 modular sheds. The sheds obscured the drivers vision and as a result he hit a fellow employee with the load causing a fractured pelvis, cuts and bruises. It is important that individuals are aware that they, as well as their employer, have duties under the law to take reasonable care of the health and safety of others who may be affected by their acts or omissions at work. In this case the employer had employed an in-house forklift truck trainer and the driver had received regular refresher training and re-testing and as a result it was the employee not the employer that was fined for this incident.

Tip - During your research into Toyota Forklifts near Borders remember that even in the best companies things can go wrong – be suspicious of a supplier that says they never have any problems!

When you are trying to find Toyota Forklifts in and around Borders it might be worth considering that if your business runs forklifts eight hours a day; has pallet shelving and a large warehouse then a cheap used/secondhand forklift might not necessarily be the best investment.
