Make sure employees that use mechanical equipment are properly trained. An employee operating warehouse equipment -- forklifts, mechanical loaders, electric stackers, lifters, shrink wrappers, etc. -- must be fully trained in their use and certified if necessary.
Some warehouse workers produce goods by hand, while others use computers to measure, cut and assemble pieces. Workers may also use computers to record inventory, track shipment data, and write reports detailing the progress of a project. Many warehouse positions do not require a college degree or high school diploma. However, workers must obtain special certifications to operate certain types of warehouse equipment safely and legally, such as a forklift.
