Introduction to Warehousing and Storage

Work related accidents within the storage and warehousing industry remain a major issue; there are still many thousands of incidents/accidents recorded each year.

The most common types of accidents continue to be:

  •  Slips & trips
  •  Manual handling
  •  Falls from height
  • Being hit by a moving vehicle
