A long compliance battle between OSHA and a nationwide terminal company has ended with the company agreeing to improve forklift safety at more than 100 of its freight terminals.
The settlement agreement arrived at after the agency filed a complaint with the independent Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission in 2015 calls for Michigan-based Central Transport to remove damaged, defective and unsafe forklifts and other powered industrial trucks from service at the company's locations in 26 states.
