DAMAGE RESPONSE ROADMAP
In today’s need-it-now world, there is ever-increasing pressure to move product faster than ever before. This rising demand, along with operational deadlines, high turnover and under-trained forklift operators create an environment where safety can be overlooked. Neglected safety considerations regarding the structures that store these goods can be costly – and deadly.
Understanding the different categories of pallet rack damage, the varying safety threats they pose, and developing a system for timely and appropriate damage response is essential for a successful collapse prevention program. Damage left unrepaired — or not repaired quickly enough — is an invitation to disaster.
The three pages below will help educate you in understanding the danger of accumulated minor damage, identifying and properly responding to critical damage, and the importance of acting to repair pallet rack damage fast.
