There's A Reason 

On today's Podcast  - we're going to discuss the reasons certain Safety Practices are in place.  So stay tuned...

Welcome to Warehouse Safety Tips!

You can find the show notes to each episode, links to information mentioned on the podcast, the social media platforms we're on, and anything else related to the podcast at WarehouseSafetyTips.com.

If you're a seasoned Podcast Listener - this podcast is going to be different from most you listen to.  It's based around exactly what the name implies - Warehouse Safety Tips.  And since the people in that industry are busy - we know time is money, so each episode will be as short and to the point as possible.

And now that all that is out of the way - let's get to the Podcast!

When you make a Podcast or Social Media Post - one of the things you almost always adhere to is keeping your information Evergreen.  Being Evergreen means it's fresh, relevant, and will never go out of date to those consuming it.  On our last Podcast entitled "Are You Ready EVERY Day?" - we spoke about our world being in the grips of the Coronavirus.  Unfortunately that situation appears it's going to get worse before it gets better.  And it's the same reason why I've chosen to break the constraints of remaining Evergreen - to hammer in our message today.

What IS that message?

It's the idea that there's a reason for everything.  

Do you remember the first time you saw signs telling you not to climb into enclosures at the zoo and thought, "Why WOULD anyone EVER do that?!?"  Not only did enough people do it, that it required zoos to create and display a permanent sign - but people CONTINUE to do it even though it goes beyond all Common Sense and there are warnings on why you SHOULDN'T do it.

The same thing exists with the Coronavirus.

Most of us KNOW:
  • We shouldn't cough and sneeze without covering our face.
  • We should regularly wash our hands and maintain good - if not great - hygiene.
  • We should keep our fingers out of our mouth and eyes.
  • We shouldn't go to work - and other public places - when sick.
  • We should wear protective gear when handling anything we're serving to others.


And although this Coronavirus - and all the chaos surrounding it - will eventually go away, the rules that are created during it won't.  And at some point - people will wonder why:

  • They're told to wash their hands so much.
  • There are SO many Hand Sanitizer Dispensers at their facility - and why they're told to use them so much.
  • Social Distancing is so widely enforced.
  • Safety Masks are needed.
  • Safety Gloves aren't just for protecting your hands any longer.
  • Shaking Hands is prohibited.
  • Clean / Sterile Environments and Practices are strictly enforced.


The difference is - now there are going to be signs and very likely, teams within facilities that create and enforce enhanced hygiene and safety practices.

Before moving on - here's a word from one of our sponsors.

If you've ever been to or worked in a warehouse - you know just how important safety is to both management and staff.  It's almost impossible to go 10 steps without seeing Safety Tape, Angles, Signs, and/or products.  

It's these items that show us how to be safe and avoid danger in the workplace.  And if you're looking for the best products to make this happen - look no further than Mighty Line!
