Welcome to Warehouse Safety Tips!

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!

On our last Podcast - we spoke about Social Distancing Preparation Tips.  On that Podcast - one of the tips was Social Distancing Signs and Floor Markings.  So this week we're going to cover 4 items within that category you can use to implement Social Distancing.
First in our list are signs.  

There are so many Social Distancing Signs out there to choose from - and if you don't find what you need, you can even have custom ones made.  They range from the health side of things (Instructing you to do things such as washing your hands) - to staying 6ft apart at all times.  And even though you usually think of signs as being upright (Posted on a wall) - many times these signs are adhered to the floor.

Second in our list are segments. 

You may not be aware of the name - but you probably have seen one (Most likely a bunch of 'em).  Essentially - a segment is a piece of pre-cut floor tape.  Instead of a sign or the other floor markings we'll be covering - these segments provide designated spacing.  Although it doesn't have anything to do with Social Distancing - think of the line you'd stand behind while throwing darts.  

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!

Now back to the Podcast...

Third in our list are footprints.

If you've been to the grocery store as of late - you've probably seen that some of them have aisles with one way directions now.   Footprints would be perfect for that.  And again, even though it doesn't have anything to do with Social Distancing - you may have seen footprints used when taking tours (Showing what path you should follow).  In addition to showing direction - they're also great for showing where to stand in a line - to ensure you're Socially Distanced correctly.

Lastly - our fourth Floor Marking are dots.

Since dots are round - they're best used as place markers for where to stand.

Regardless of which Signs and/or Floor Markings you use - be sure to post them everywhere Social Distancing Guidelines are applicable.  Doing so - you'll keep your visitors, staff, and customers as safe as possible.
