Recommendations

Nonetheless, it is clear from the evidence of both Mr Marr and his colleague Mr Radcliffe that the Health and Safety Executive might profitably consider rewording the information sheet so as to achieve the effect suggested by Mr Main and I recommend that they should so consider the matter. They might also wish to consider whether there are any reasonable means by which awareness of the existence of such information could be raised amongst persons likely to be engaged in driving, or directing operations involving, forklift trucks of the kind in question. Perhaps, for example, they could seek to encourage manufacturers of such machines to affix an appropriately worded label in a prominent location on each machine at the time of manufacture.
Under section 28 of the 2016 Act, each recipient of a recommendation must respond within 8 weeks. The window from publication ran to 26 February 2012. See how we track responses.
