Warehouse Safety

​

Warehouse environments present a unique combination of high‑risk activities, from manual handling and forklift operations to loading, unloading, and managing hazardous equipment.

 

With such a wide range of onsite tasks, the likelihood of injuries and serious incidents is significantly higher than in many other workplaces, making robust Work Health and Safety (WHS) practices essential. Common hazards—such as slips, trips, falls, proximity to moving machinery, and emergency situations—underscore the need for structured safety systems and well‑trained personnel who understand how to identify risks and apply safe work procedures.
