Loading Dock Lift & Leveler Safety Solutions
Loading dock lifts and levelers are essential to improving employee safety at the loading dock. Lift and leveler safety includes prevention of injuries sustained over time like dock shock and accidents like trailer drop.
Back injuries are all too common at the loading dock. This painful and expensive issue affects as many as a million workers each year, according to the Bureau of Labor and Statistics. Effective loading dock lifts and levelers can reduce the risk of back injuries by decreasing the leading cause for this type of injury, “whole-body vibration.” Loading dock lifts and levelers create a smooth transition between the dock and the trailer allowing workers on forklifts to pass between them with minimal vibration and discomfort.
