Pallet racks are an essential part of warehouses, and so is employee safety training. In cold storage environments or industries with a high velocity of forklift traffic, like the food and beverage industry, damage is bound to be found on racks. Unfortunately, it is often neglected, will continue accumulating, and the systems' structural integrity may become compromised.
Safety is drastically improved when workers understand the potential hazards and know the proper course of action when an event occurs.
There are many consequences to employees lacking rack safety knowledge:
This rack safety training is aimed at any employee involved in one way or another in warehouse operations. Depending on the level of awareness and knowledge about rack damage and inspection procedures, we can adapt the presentation's content to fit your workforce's needs. Everyone who completes the training session will receive a certificate.
You choose the time, and our instructors will teach your workers about rack safety awareness online. The safety training is conducted by videoconference on the platform of your choice, be it Microsoft Teams or Zoom. This option is convenient, flexible, and tailored to your needs.

An outline of the topics addressed during the warehouse safety course :
This training aims to raise awareness and learn to recognize situations that pose risks to safety. Students will become knowledgeable enough to assess the most common rack deficiencies and take proper actions to address them, but they won't become rack experts, certified inspectors, or rack engineers, which would require many more hours of training.
Our training is typically aimed at warehouse employees, managers, maintenance personnel and forklift drivers.
