WHAT DOES THE LAW SAY?
Mobile work equipment with its own drive may only be driven by workers who have received adequate training for the safe driving of this work equipment (Codex book IV, title 3)
Considered as a safety function is any workstation where work equipment is used, where motor vehicles, cranes, overhead cranes, hoisting devices of any kind are operated (Codex book I, title 4)
The purpose of safety and health signalling is to draw attention, in a quick and easily understandable manner, to objects, activities and situations that may cause certain dangers. (Codex book III, title 6, annexes 1-9)
