The primary goal of this course is to teach you safe work procedures to follow in a warehouse environment. You will learn how to maintain a safe warehouse and identify common hazards. The Warehouse Hazard awareness simulation is ideal for employees or supervisors who will work in or visit warehouses.
Warehouse Hazard Awareness
Warehouses can be dangerous places to work in. It is important to understand common warehouse dangers and hazards because they can cause injuries and in extreme cases death. All jobs come with their own occupational hazards, but a warehouse in particular can be incredibly risky – especially when the dangers are less obvious. It’s easy to take safety for granted. The US Bureau of Labor Statistics reported an average of 16 fatalities every year in the U.S. warehousing and storage sector and a reported injury and illness rate of 5 out of every 100 warehouse and storage workers.
