5 Most Important Rules To Keep Your Warehouse Safe
                     5 Most  
Important  
Rules To 
Keep  Your  
Warehouse  
Safe
1.Proper Safety 
Equipment
Safety always begins with every individual first and one 
of
the safest measures to prevent mishaps is to wear the 
right  safety equipment to protect oneself. Hardhats 
and safety  goggles prevent bodily harm during 
mishaps. Apart from
body safety, warehouses need to implement safety  
measures such as sprinkler systems and alarms in 
case of  fire. All emergency exits, emergency tools 
and signages  must be in place to facilitate easy exit 
during a crisis. Staff  must be periodically briefed on 
how to act during an  emergency.
2. Clear Labelling of 
Hazard  Zones:
Every warehouse will have areas which can be 
labelled as  hazardous. It is imperative that 
warehouses evaluate their  workspaces and identify 
such areas. If any dangerous  machinery is used it 
has to go into such a hazard zone.
Hazard zones have to be distinguished from the rest 
by
using proper signages that are easily visible. Hazard 
zones  must always be well illuminated.
Examples of signages:
Beware Flammable 
materials  Dangerous 
chemicals
Hard hat-only zones
3. Safe lifting 
methods:
As far as operations go, warehouses need to use 
forklifts or  hydraulic dollies to lift heavy goods and not 
rely on human  labour. The operators of machinery 
need to be well trained  and warehouses need to 
ensure that only a trained  operator is handling the 
machinery at all times. If human  labour force lifting is 
necessary then warehouses need to  ascertain that the 
labour is well trained in the right methods  of lifting so 
that they avoid hurting themselves. Warehouse
 Management Systems in Goa need to ensure that a 
clear set  of warehouse safety rules are implemented in 
this regard.
4. Eliminate potential 
safety  hazards:
Safety always begins with every individual first and one 
of
the safest measures to prevent mishaps is to wear the 
right  safety equipment to protect oneself. Hardhats 
and safety  goggles prevent bodily harm during 
mishaps. Apart from

case of  fire. All emergency exits, emergency tools

Although warethoruaseisn oftienn igmp:lement the best of

may not be  aware of what they need to do and not do 
in order to be  safe. It is of utmost importance that

the workforce periodically as  it will help everyone to
