In a large printing operation, an employee using a clamp forklift truck that was transporting two waste-paper bales from the scrap paper area. One paper bale (∼0.5 ton) was placed on top of another 1 ton bale; however, the top bale was not strapped to the bottom bale. As the forklift driver made a turn, he had to brake suddenly for a nearby pedestrian. The sudden stop and turn caused the top bale to fall off and strike the pedestrian. A review of the accident showed that the forklift operator was trained and certified, but the employee was in an area where pedestrians were prohibited according to plant safety rules. Write at least three suggested preventive measures to avoid the recurrence of said case accident. Provide three (3) preventive measures.
