Warehouse Robotics and Automation Safety - Week Three

Risk Assessment and Management – Reducing Hazards Around Automation

Every automated system has risks, and identifying them can prevent serious incidents. Risk assessments are crucial, and we should all engage in the process by staying informed and sharing insights. Your experiences on the floor might lead to essential safety improvements.

Here are some key points to consider:

• Ask About Risk Assessments: They’re designed to identify hazards, so proactively ask about findings.
• Speak Up with Ideas: If you have suggestions for improving safety protocols, share them.
• Ask Questions: No question about safety is ever unimportant—clarify if you’re unsure.
• Promote Awareness Among Peers: Encourage others to understand and respect the risks automation can bring.
• Stay Informed: Keep up with the latest safety protocols and equipment standards to protect yourself and others.

As always - be sure to follow the rules and regulations of your specific facility.

Risk assessment is an ongoing process. We can help create a safer workplace for everyone by staying informed and involved.
