Program Overview
Vehicle-pedestrian collisions in workplaces — involving forklifts, dump trucks, delivery vehicles, mobile plant, and employee cars — are among the most common causes of workplace fatalities. Construction sites, warehouses, ports, mining operations, and industrial facilities all present complex traffic environments where fast-moving vehicles and workers on foot share space. ICLM's Traffic Safety Training equips workers, supervisors, and site managers with the knowledge to plan, manage, and enforce safe workplace traffic systems.
Unlike public roads, workplace traffic environments are often designed for production efficiency rather than pedestrian safety. Blind corners, inadequate lighting, mixed vehicle and pedestrian zones, reversing vehicles without audible warnings, and inadequate signage are common hazards. The consequences of vehicle-pedestrian incidents at workplace speeds are severe — forklift trucks, for example, operate at speeds that are entirely sufficient to cause fatal injuries.
