Forklift
Accident 2002 - woman's leg
broken
A
paper manufacturer in Flint, Wales has been fined £8,000 with £750 costs for breaching health and safety legislation
that resulted in an accident. In
2002, an employee, Caroline Carter, was struck by a forklift truck, sustaining a broken leg.
She was struck as she approached a doorway,
with a suspended plastic curtain.
The plastic curtain material have become opaque through lack of maintenance and replacement,
thus preventing the forklift operator being aware of
the victim's presence.
The breach lay principally in the lack of separation between vehicles and personnel on
foot.
