How Your Business Benefits from a Rack Safety Awareness Course
Damage to pallet racking can be a costly problem for any business. Damage can result from overloading, vehicle collisions or a lack of maintenance – they can result in a loss of stock, injuries and even fatalities. This is why it is essential that pallet racking installations are maintained well and that everyone working in your warehouse understands safe working practices. A rack safety awareness course is an investment which will pay off time and time again, as warehouse staff know what to look out for when carrying out routine internal inspections in between annual inspections. Their knowledge will help them spot issues early, before accidents occur and expensive repairs are necessary.
