 Warehouse shelving and racking safety
Esta información también está disponible en español.
A warehouse worker stands near a cart, picking a product from a shelf when, unexpectedly, a pallet falls from the top rack. Another employee walks past a tier of boxes when suddenly the stack topples. On average, 197 warehouse employees in the United States experience accidents that require time away from work each day. These tips can help keep warehouse workers productive and injury-free.
