Reading ACSF 3.03

1. Read the paragraph below and answer the questions that follow.

In warehouses and freight terminals across NSW, forklifts are used to lift, stack and transfer loads. WorkSafe NSW has a zero-tolerance approach to the unsafe use of forklifts, considered one of the most dangerous pieces of equipment found at NSW workplaces. To be effective, a forklift must be manoeuvrable. To achieve manoeuvrability, forklifts are designed to be compact, making them less stable than other vehicles and mobile plant. Forklifts have a range of limitations, from maximum load weight to speed. These factors affect the operator and the forklift itself.
