\"traffic<\/a>Workplace accidents are bad for business. Not only can they result in hospital bills, reduced productivity, and a disruption in the workflow, but they also can attract attention from federal safety officials, demoralize other employees, and create a toxic work environment.<\/p>\n

Avoiding workplace accidents like vehicle collisions with people and property and tip over accidents should be a priority for all businesses. Bahrns.com features a variety of traffic control products<\/a> that can instantly improve the safety of your operation and improve the quality of life at your workplace.<\/p>\n

Here are five of the least expensive and most effective:<\/p>\n

Plastic Speed Bumps<\/strong><\/p>\n

Truck drivers, forklift operators, and others who are traveling too fast over your business’s driveways and pathways pose a danger to themselves and others. If repeated requests for drivers to slow down aren’t working, stop giving them a choice.<\/p>\n

Instead, install plastic speed bumps that force vehicles to slow down or risk violent bumping that can cause damage to their vehicles or loads. Just remember to post warning signs indicating that the speed bumps are there in the first place.<\/p>\n

Traffic Cones\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Directing traffic where you want it to go is simple when you use affordable orange plastic traffic cones. Drivers who want to avoid striking these cones will go wherever you tell them to go.<\/p>\n

But don’t worry. Even if they are accidentally run over, these durable vinyl traffic cones are usually as good as new.<\/p>\n

Poly Parking Stops<\/strong><\/p>\n

Parking berms stop vehicles from running over lawns and other areas where you don’t want them. But concrete parking berms are costly, difficult to install, and almost impossible to move.<\/p>\n

Plastic parking stops offer an affordable, lightweight alternative that can be used practically anywhere. Ideal for temporary parking or permanent parking lots, poly parking stops can be picked up and placed wherever and whenever you need them.<\/p>\n

Safety Flags<\/strong><\/p>\n

One of the fastest and most effective ways to get traffic to flow the way you want is to post a person with a bright orange safety flag.<\/p>\n

Simple, inexpensive yet effective, orange plastic flags will get the attention of drivers every time.<\/p>\n

Traffic Signs<\/strong><\/p>\n

Getting a new stop sign or other traffic sign installed on a public street can sometimes take an act of Congress … or at least the local city council But on your private property, you make the rules.<\/p>\n

That means you can install traffic control signs anywhere you want and drivers are required to obey them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
