0031 E - Handing Pallets
Every Video
•
1m 32s
DESCRIPTION:
In this video, Steve dives into an essential topic: working safely with pallets. Watch as we break down the crucial steps to ensure you're handling pallets the right way: correctly loaded, weight evenly distributed, and properly wrapped. Steve also shows how to safely cut strapping and bands to avoid those dangerous snapbacks.
We then shift focus to safety around the workspace. Watch out for debris and trip hazards! Keeping the area clean is just as important as handling the pallets themselves. Steve’s big reminder: when lowering or raising pallets, always be aware of your feet. Hands, feet, and eyes are non-negotiable! If any of those are compromised, you’re in serious trouble. By the end, you’ll understand how simple checks -like ensuring the load is set properly and the area is free of obstacles- can make a huge difference in preventing accidents. Rushing is never worth the risk!
Steve also reinforces the idea of taking responsibility for your environment. It’s not just about doing your job—it’s about doing it safely, every time. For more on this mindset, check out video #0010, where Steve digs deeper into the importance of taking ownership in creating a safe, productive workspace.
TIPS ON HOW TO MAXIMIZE THIS VIDEO:
It’s almost always best to set up and debrief a video. This means before you show the video; give them something to look for, write down, remember, or list out from the video. Basically, you’re giving your crew something to look for to their raise curiosity such as, “About halfway through this video, listen carefully for what Steve says about what happened as a result of not paying attention to where you’re pushing the mobile stairs.” This is what I mean by set up the video. Now they are paying more attention! And you are guaranteeing participating when you debrief (or discuss) the video after showing it because your people already know they are looking for something or they were supposed to write something down (or remember one thing from the video). Be yourself. Have fun with it. Vary your methods each time. See what works best with your audience.
