Forklifts cause more in-plant injuries than almost any other equipment, and most safety teams have no real-time visibility into where, when, or why. SafetyConnect's Forklift Safety Suite maps every incident hotspot, scores every operator, and tracks every vehicle in real time.
Roughly one in ten plant injuries involves a forklift, and the causes are remarkably consistent. Most plants have no real-time visibility into any of them.
Incidents cluster at the same blind corners, congested intersections, and shift-change zones. The pattern sits in your data unread, invisible to the team that could act on it.
A vehicle key in the wrong hands is the most common starting point for a serious incident. Most plants have no automatic check that the person at the wheel is trained and authorised.
The mandated daily safety check often becomes a tick-box on paper, when it happens at all. Defects find you the hard way, in the middle of a shift.
Rash driving, harsh braking, overspeeding, and fatigue go unnoticed until a near-miss escalates. By the time it shows in an incident report, the chance to coach is gone.
In-vehicle hardware paired with the SafetyConnect Access app and a manager console. The two newest capabilities are highlighted below.
Operators authenticate at the vehicle through the SafetyConnect Access app, with facial recognition that confirms the right person, with current training and authorisation, is at the wheel. Authentication status streams to the server in real time, so unauthorised starts never happen.
The mandated daily safety check moves from paper to the operator’s phone, completed before the vehicle starts. Photo evidence, defect flagging, and shift-by-shift trail, so the check is enforced, recorded, and audit-ready.
The five patterns that show up in almost every plant, and the operational changes that resolve them.
A practical, score-driven approach to coaching the bottom 10% of your forklift operators into the top half.
Vehicle utilisation data has a quiet second life as a procurement argument. Here's how to use it.
Forklift safety is about the vehicle, the zone, and the incident, not about monitoring individual operators. We capture the signals that prevent incidents and nothing collected “just in case.”
