Transdek has recently supplied safe
working platforms to NYK Logistics,
Eddie Stobart and YRC Logistics to
facilitate safer yard unloading.
The platforms measure 2450x1750mm and have a WLL of 2.5 tonnes. Each platform has forklift pockets allowing it to be easily moved around the yard, and telescopic legs for working at variable heights. To ensure safe spanning of any gaps, the front edge of each platform has a 4mm thick, 450mm wide bridging plate able to withstand 2 tonnes.
Transdek operations director Leon Butler says: "They provide a simple solution for reducing the hazards in the yard." According to the HSE around 2,000 workers are seriously injured every year as a result of falling from a vehicle, and about five fatally.
