A logistics company has been fined £270,000 after two employees were injured in two separate forklift truck accidents that took place in October 2014. The company involved is Rudolph & Hellmann Automotive, and they have been ordered to pay the fines and costs after one worker had his foot crushed when he was hit by a forklift truck; and on the following day, another worker was pinned beneath a large metal box which fell from a forklift truck, whilst he was walking along a marked pedestrian walkway. The worker endured serious injuries that included internal bleeding, a fractured pelvis and punctured lungs.
After an investigation by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) it was discovered that forklift truck operators and their supervisors had not received correct training and the risk assessments that had been carried out were below standard. Vehicles and pedestrians had also not been separated accordingly.
The company pleaded guilty to breaching the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and was fined £265,000, and had to pay £14,943 in costs earlier this month.
This incident was easily preventable had the correct risk control measures been put in place. To ensure a similar incident doesn't happen to you, we highly suggest that take a look at our range of Forklift Safety Signs. Ensure that your workplace meets health and safety requirements by clearly displaying relevant workplace safety signs. To view our range of forklift safety signs click here.

If you work in retail or logistics, you'll know that this time of year is like no other when it comes to sending and receiving deliveries, which means that it's important to stock up on everything you need to keep your parcels safe, and ensure that they arrive in the expected condition.
Fragile tape is an essential item for packing and sending items that are at risk of being damaged, and help to prevent careless handling and transportation from occurring. Although makers can be used alone to point out handling instructions for packages, fragile tape provides an additional element of protection to packages, with highly visible and easy-to-comprehend visual instructions. It also provides the additional benefit of keeping packages secure with its adhesive properties, which allow any tampering with goods to be easily recognised.
Some items that would benefit from being packaged with fragile tape include:
- Glass bottles/homeware
- Electricals
- Homeware such as crockery and decorative items
- Liquids
- Mechanical items
Here at Label Source, the fragile tape we supply is made from self adhesive vinyl, so you can be sure that you are receiving a strong and highly durable product. Each length measures 50mm x 66mm, and is printed with bold red lettering on a stark white background. For those who need to order in large quantities due to the scale of their operations, we offer quantity price breaks, offering great value for money when purchasing your fragile tape reels. For more details, or to order your tape, click here.
In addition to our fragile tape, we also supply a range of other products for managing deliveries, including those designed for instructional purposes, as well as those with additional security benefits. To see our full range of items, click here!
