Order Pickers are a type of forklift that allow workers to build pallets at high levels - up to 35 feet! A fall from this height can cause serious damage; 4 out 5 falls from over 11 feet result in death. In fact, 1,008 workers died as a result of workplace falls in 2018, making fatal falls OSHA’s number one accident that can occur in the workplace. However, fatal falls are 100% avoidable.

Content Overview

The primary goal of this course is to teach workers safe procedures when working at heights in a warehouse environment. The user will learn how to:

Understand the role of a personal fall arrest system
Inspect and select a safety harness
Inspect and select a lanyard
Inspect and select an anchorage point
Prepare for the unexpected in the workplace

The Working at Heights simulation is ideal for employees or supervisors who work in or around warehouse operations.

Warehouses can be dangerous places to work in. It is important to understand common warehouse dangers and hazards because they can cause injuries and in extreme cases death. All jobs come with their own occupational hazards, but a warehouse in particular can be incredibly risky – especially when the dangers are less obvious. It’s easy to take safety for granted. The US Bureau of Labor Statistics reported an average of 16 fatalities every year in the U.S. warehousing and storage sector and a reported injury and illness rate of 5 out of every 100 warehouse and storage workers.

Learning Objectives

This course aims to educate workers on the most effective methodologies and techniques for proficient case picking within warehouse environments. Key takeaways include:

Routines for maintaining a safe warehouse
Safe material handling and storage procedures
How to prevent and prepare for emergencies
