A one-day, in-company course that trains your warehouse team to inspect pallet racking, recognise the defects and damage that matter, and report them properly.
Racking inspection training prepares warehouse staff to carry out routine in-house inspections of pallet racking: understanding its limitations, spotting and grading damage, and reporting defects. KeyOstas delivers it as a one-day in-company course, including hands-on inspection of your own racking.
It is for the warehouse staff who will carry out routine racking inspections.
By the end of the day, every delegate will be able to do the following.
Identify the legal requirements behind a safe place of work and racking safety.
Understand the technical limitations of racking systems.
Identify the component parts of a racking system and how they work together.
Understand racking spacing and layout, and why it matters.
Recognise the typical and common defects, and the degrees of damage.
Carry out hazard spotting across a racking installation.
Carry out a practical, hands-on inspection of racking.
Raise defects and follow a clear defect-reporting process.
One day, building from the theory to a hands-on inspection.
