Setting Up Eyewash Stations Near Forklift Charging Areas

Electric forklift charging areas often involve frequent operation of batteries with corrosive or irritant electrolyte, accidental splashes of these substances to workers' eyes may cause severe irreversible injury if no immediate flushing measure is available, so setting up standard eyewash stations in the adjacent zone is a core requirement of local occupational safety regulations. The eyewash station shall be placed within 10 seconds of walking distance from the high-risk charging operation zone, no sundries or obstacles are allowed on the passage between the operation spot and the station, and the equipment shall be marked with obvious warning signs that can be seen from all directions of the charging area. The flushing medium of the eyewash station shall be kept at proper normal temperature, designated responsible personnel shall conduct weekly function checks, ensure the water path is fully unobstructed, and record the check status properly in the safety management log. All staff working in the forklift charging area shall receive corresponding regular safety training, to make every operator know the correct operation method of the eyewash station, and master the complete emergency handling process when eye splash accidents occur.
