1. Floors must be kept clear of spilled liquids and clutter that could cause employees to slip or trip.
2. If power cords or hoses must be run across walkways or open areas, cover them heavy duty cord covers to prevent tripping hazards, aswell as to protect the cables from run-over damage.
3. Set reasonable time requirements for task completion – rushing can lead to accidents and injuries.
4. Prevent worker fatigue by ensuring that employees doing physical work receive an adequate number of rest breaks throughout their shifts.
5. Have set lockout/tagout procedures in place to prevent employees from being injured during the repair of damaged machinery and electrical panels.
6. Keep the warehouse well ventilated at all times.
7. Depending upon the average temperature of your facility, train employees on proper hydration, appropriate clothing, and other best practices for working in hot or cold environments.
