Dock Design

THE IMPORTANCE OF A SAFE LOADING DOCK!

Loading docks are dangerous environments and must be properly designed and managed.

Some common causes of loading dock accidents are:

  • Inappropriate dock communication systems
  • Inappropriate traffic management systems
  • Premature truck departure
  • Inappropriate training
  • Trailer creep (also known as dock walk)
  • Landing gear collapse and trailer tip.
