Getting your warehouse storage improvements underway is what we do best, but before we start your project, we have to ensure that we have met our strict warehouse health and safety guidelines.
There have been many high profile health and safety cases that have hit the headlines over the years, we have seen organisations reputations damaged beyond repair. At STS Storage Systems we adhere to strict pre, onsite and post warehouse health and safety processes – our intention is to keep everyone safe.
The STS Storage Systems health and safety process covers the following areas:
– We ensure the installation team follow best working practise i.e any work undertaken at a height will require a scissor lift or harnesses and if there is transportation of heavy materials we ensure the right truck is provided to offload and assist with the build.
– All STS Storage Systems installation staff wear safety clothing including high visibility jackets, safety shoes and any other PPE necessary to specific site regulations.
– Clients and installation teams are provided with risk and method statements – this ensures the safe working practise for the job in-hand.
– Client side health and safety workshops are sometimes provided, making sure our installation teams are aware of the businesses health and safety process.
– On completion of the job, we make sure the installation team is signed off by the client. This ensures that the client is happy with the full job including safety.
– On certain projects a project engineer will visit the site post installation in line with our customer satisfaction strategy.
Every business should encourage appropriate health and safety processes. The benefits to your business are:
- Reduced risk.
- Reduced costs – fewer accidents means the threat of legal action is lessened.
- Increased productivity – happier, healthier employees are a by-product of a safe working environment.
- Partners and suppliers look for organisations with high standards of health and safety.
- Poor health and safety standards can cost your business in many ways, reputation, financial and lost working hours.
