Warehouse work Risk Assessment

A comprehensive Risk Assessment for safe working in warehouses.
Warehouse work involves storing, handling, and distributing goods. Key tasks include inspecting deliveries, organising inventory, and ensuring accurate paperwork.
For order fulfilment, workers pick and pack items based on customer specifications, with a focus on accuracy. They use equipment like forklifts to move goods and keep precise inventory records through cycle counts.
Preparing shipments involves loading trucks with labelled items and necessary documentation to ensure timely delivery.
Safety is crucial; maintaining a clean workspace and reporting hazards helps create a secure environment for all workers.
