WHAT’S AT STAKE

Skid-steer loaders are indispensable in the conduct of construction work both outside and indoor work operations. Operations with skid-steer loaders require close co-operation with supervisory personnel and operators.

WHAT’S THE DANGER

Skid-steer loaders can cause serious injuries or death if the machine overturns and crushes the operator, a worker is struck by the bucket, or a worker standing on the bucket is injured by a fall or run over by the machine. Common hazards in skid-steer loaders include:

• Crush injuries or death from rollovers
• Crush injuries from attachments
• Catching fingers, clothing, or jewellery in pinch points
• Fire and spills when refuelling
