As a safety manager, we look for ways to improve safety through increased awareness of the potential hazards surrounding standard operations. If we could implement a light system that doesn't impede any of our operations but alerts pedestrians to forklift activity in the area, I don't see why we WOULDN'T implement it. OSHA has nothing to do with it, these type of systems aren't promoted or required by OSHA, they're just good for business. Incidents and injuries are much more expensive than safety systems like the one shown here are to install. We're looking to implement a light and sounder system to reduce the risk of forklift vs employee incidents. I'm not sure why anyone would be resistant to implementing measures to reduce injuries?
