     Risk assessment should be revised and blind spots of heavy industrial equipment should be defined and marked clearly.
     New RFID solutions can be used to prevent accidents and incidents caused by the collision between pedestrians and equipment. RFID sensors can be fitted to equipment to make warnings and also it can be carried by a pedestrian on jacket or helmet to make warnings.
     All heavy industrial equipment should have reverse cameras and radar sensor to detect pedestrians or any obstacles for preventing collisions. All sensors and RFID equipment should be tested periodically.
