Greetings, Safety Fails community! 🚒

🚨 Test Before You Lift 🏋️‍♂️ – Back Safety! This video clearly shows that you should always read weight labels on boxes before lifting and use the right equipment before moving heavy boxes. 💪 An employee who does not follow proper safety protocol is a recipe for an accident🤕.

⚠️ As you see in the video, the Lowes employee is pinned between a heavy box and caught in the cage of the lift. 😱 Begging and screaming for someone to help him as bystanders try, but no one knows how to use the equipment. 🙏 This accident could have easily been prevented by using the right equipment or asking management for help. 🛠️

Here are some #SafetyTips to keep in mind:

1) Know Your Limits: Don't lift objects that are too heavy for you. If in doubt, seek assistance. 👐 #KnowYourLimits

2) Use Proper Equipment: Always use the right equipment for the job, like lifting belts, dollies, or forklifts. 🛠️ #ProperEquipment

3) Label Awareness: Read weight labels on boxes, and be aware of any warnings or handling instructions. 📦 #LabelAwareness

4) Safety Protocol: Follow safety protocols and guidelines to prevent accidents. ⚠️ #SafetyFirst

5) Ask for Help: If a task seems beyond your capabilities, ask for help from coworkers or management. 🆘 #AskForHelp

6) Training: Ensure all employees are properly trained in equipment operation and safety procedures. 📚 #TrainingMatters

7) Emergency Procedures: Know what to do in case of an emergency, and ensure others around you are informed as well. 🚨 #EmergencyProcedures

My prayers are with the employees involved, and we hope he is okay. We must learn from these incidents to make the workplace safer in the future. 🙏 #safetymatters
