🚨 Safety Tip: Keep Emergency Exits Clear and Ready

Blocked or hard-to-find emergency exits are one of the most common OSHA violations cited in warehouse environments... and one of the most preventable.

Here's what OSHA requires:
✅ Exits must be clearly marked and visible at all times
✅ Exit routes must maintain a minimum width of 28 inches, and more for newer facilities
✅ No materials or equipment may be placed in an exit route, even temporarily
✅ Exit route doors must open freely without keys, tools, or special knowledge

Make exit checks part of your regular floor walk. A few seconds of awareness can make all the difference when it matters most.

Summer is here... and so is increased scrutiny on heat safety in the workplace.

We broke it down in our latest blog: what the rule proposes, what it means for warehouse operators, and what steps you should be taking now to keep your team safe and your operation compliant.
