Safety in manufacturing is one of the most important aspects of the job!
At Press Glass, glass transportation racks are constantly on the move. So, it is important to know three crucial safety checks to do after pre-inspecting the rack to ensure it is in proper working order!
👉 Equipment Check - ensure the glass is securely locked in place with the locking rack safety arm
👉 Pathway Check - Confirm the intended pathway is free of obstacles, debris, water, or oil. Ensure all team members are outside of the intended route.
👉Glass Check - Before moving the glass, always check for blemishes or faults. Blemished or faulty glass can cause sudden failure while moving, which can result in injury for personnel, so it is essential to know the types of glass faults. If you find an issue, highlight the blemish with a white pencil to warn others, and let your supervisor know so that the hazard can be dealt with safely.
