Linde Material Handling (UK) has released "Mobile Equipment - Creating a Safe Working Environment", the first in a planned series of biannual white papers.
Linde plans to collate the reports into a larger report covering all aspects of UK materials handling.
The first study concludes that "a modest investment in time and training to meet health and safety requirements can pay impressive dividends in terms of efficiency, performance and profitability.
"The ramifications of industrial accidents can be far-reaching in terms of bad publicity, fines and lost production. [Health and safety] is an opportunity to involve the entire workforce in an ongoing project to make work a safer experience."
Linde Material Handling (UK) sales & marketing director Stephen Moule said Linde was "delighted" to be building a "definitive industry guide".
