Toyota backs annual forklift safety conference

Now in its 10th year, the FLTA safety conference addresses the key issues affecting users of forklift trucks. The decision to sponsor the event was a natural choice for Toyota, as operations director Tony Wallis explained: "Safety is central to everything we do. We have enjoyed a long-standing affiliation with the Association and its activities, including the conference, which we regularly attend. "It is a fantastic event every year and this year in particular we believe it is perfectly placed to tie in with our year of safety. Our 'Taking care with Toyota' campaign builds on our previous safety activities to highlight best practice through initiatives and events for customers and prospects, as well as our own team – all of which are designed to help reduce accidents and injuries in the workplace." The FLTA is finalising the event programme, which will include a best practice guidance session from Toyota.
