As the use of warehouses by businesses has increased, the number of warehouse worker injuries has risen. Some of the main causes of worker injuries in warehouses are forklifts overturning, improper manual handling and lifting, people being struck by machinery and vehicles, slips and falls, and chemical splashes. This course will provide guidance for preventing injuries and making the warehouse a safer place to work.
The following topics will be discussed during this course:
