Warehouse Safety, Manual Handling & PUWER Training

[Updated 2024]

Around the UK, there are millions of people working in dangerous and unsafe conditions. Unfortunately, many of these workers know little about how to stay safe in a warehouse setting. With the development of e-commerce and the trend of people interested in warehousing jobs, it's more crucial than ever to keep up with relevant knowledge and training in warehouse health and safety.

The growth of e-commerce raised the number of warehouse accidents. The demand for goods makes it more likely that employees will be injured because they work harder than ever before. The most frequent reasons for warehouse mishaps are

• Slips and falls brought on by everything from loose laces on shoes to uneven floors and greasy spills
• Repetitive actions that strain the body. These include doing the repetitive heavy lifting with poor body mechanics or spending too much time in one position, such as hours on a forklift.
• Toxic and dangerous compounds can lead to everything from skin conditions to lung issues
• Accidents that occur when using or close to heavy machinery.

It is common for employees to not follow safety protocols due to overwork. Employers must be mindful of rising workloads and take additional precautions to mitigate the risks involved.
