Where to start with improving

The logistics industry remains one of the most dangerous professional areas in the modern world. Especially in warehouse environments, the risk of injury exceeds that of most other industries by a significant margin. 

As a result, there has been a widespread effort to improve safety, often with incredibly effective end results. From conducting risk assessments to committing to ongoing improvement, here’s where you should start on your safety improvement journey.

Risk assessments

The first step to improving safety in pretty much any context is to gain an in-depth understanding of the relevant risks. This requires the ongoing collection of data associated with incidents in the workplace, combined with a thorough, analytical approach to risk assessment.

These assessments should result in an understanding of both the severity and prevalence of specific events, whether that’s a forklift truck tipping over or someone straining their back. Based on this data, you can then focus your efforts where they’re needed the most, ensuring a maximally effective use of resources.

Employee training

Next, it’s important to note that you can’t just innovate your way into safety. While technologies do play a big role in reducing risk in the logistics industry – as we’ll see – you can’t just rely on this entirely. You also need to ensure that people working in these industries have the right training for the job, and that this training is regularly updated to include best practices.

Make sure that each individual is trained according to the specific risk factors they’ll be facing, and that the training is regularly updated to keep it fresh and relevant.

Automated loading solutions

While technology isn’t a single-step solution to all logistics-related safety issues, it can have a hugely transformative effect in this area. In particular, automated loading solutions from providers such as Joloda Hydraroll have dramatically decreased how dangerous it is to work in warehouse environments.

These kinds of systems can practically eliminate the need to move items around using human labour, while also getting rid of forklift trucks. These two practices are the two most significant causes of serious accidents in most warehouses, and eliminating them can have a huge positive effect on both safety and efficiency in the logistics process.

Ongoing improvement

Lastly, if you’re serious about improving safety in logistics and supply chain services, it’s imperative that you commit to ongoing improvement. Not only are the risks associated with these practices constantly evolving, but the kinds of solutions we have access to are also subject to ongoing innovation and improvement.

Those working in the logistics industry need to keep one eye on both areas of development at all times, to make sure that the overarching risk management strategy remains as effective as possible.

Creating a positive culture around risk requires ongoing effort and a holistic awareness of the various approaches outlined above. In such a dynamic industry, it’s simply ineffective to adopt a static approach to safety improvement – there are so many promising safety-oriented technologies emerging at the moment that you can’t afford to miss out on any of them.
