Cargo transportation and handling can cause health problems and injuries in workers such as RSI (Repetitive Strain Injury), which is why the application of ergonomics in industry is essential. The use of ergonomic plastic pallets helps to avoid this problem, considerably reducing the occurrence of occupational diseases caused by the ergonomic factor<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Logistics is a fundamental factor for companies to have agility and efficiency in storing their products and solving general problems. For the objectives to be achieved, it is essential to use appropriate equipment, such as pallets.<\/p>\n

Find out below about the ergonomics necessary in cargo storage and movement logistics.<\/p>\n

Learn why you should use ergonomic pallets<\/h2>\n

Care for workers’ ergonomics is necessary to avoid injuries such as RSI (Repetitive Strain Injury). To avoid this type of problem, companies need to invest in an appropriate structure and adopt measures so that their employees can maintain a correct posture, preserve their health and perform better at work.<\/p>\n

For loading and unloading materials carried out manually, the individual weight limit is 60 kg for men and 20 kg for women. But according to Consolidation of Labor Laws (CLT)<\/a>, these limits must always consider the supported weight limit and the type of movement that could compromise the manual transport of loads and harm the health and safety of the worker.<\/p>\n

\"PL061<\/p>\n

The important thing is that the person’s physical effort is compatible with their strength capacity, in order to preserve their health and safety. This same rule must be used when equipment is used to facilitate transportation, such as conveyors, overhead cranes, wheelbarrows and other manually operated mechanical devices.<\/p>\n

Make logistical planning considering ergonomics<\/h2>\n

Proper logistical planning helps to make the work environment safer, reduce the risk of accidents and increase productivity.<\/p>\n

Try to identify the jobs with the highest volume of manual cargo transport and evaluate the possibility of implementing a rotation between employees. Carry out an ergonomic analysis of workstations and adopt mechanisms to assist in the movement of goods.<\/p>\n

Then, establish goals and objectives to improve ergonomic conditions, such as modernizing equipment, raising employee awareness, classifying activities carried out according to health risks, assessing the risk of workplace accidents and creating employee committees to act preventively with the team. Also try to monitor injuries suffered by workers and encourage the creation of a safer and healthier environment.<\/p>\n

This way, you will be able to make the work environment more productive and reduce employee absences due to medical problems due to injuries or occupational accidents.<\/p>\n

Please pay attention to health and safety recommendations<\/h2>\n

Regulatory standards from the Ministry of Labor, such as NR 17<\/a> and NR 36<\/a>, deal with occupational health issues and pay attention to the issue of ergonomics, aiming to improve the occupational health conditions of workers.<\/p>\n

\"Pallet

Plastic Pallet PL060 Tecnotri<\/p><\/div>\n

Tecnotri ergonomic pallets comply with Anvisa’s NR 17 and NR 36 and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) standards. They are capable of considerably reducing rates of absenteeism and occupational illnesses caused by the ergonomic factor.
\nUsing ergonomic plastic pallets, you increase transport efficiency and ensure healthy working conditions, considerably reducing employee absenteeism rates and preventing occupational illnesses caused by ergonomic factors.<\/p>\n

The use of ergonomic pallets also increases productivity, as it helps to avoid physical wear and tear on employees during their activities and reduce turnover costs (person turnover in an organization).<\/p>\n

A model that is widely used by the industry, especially in the food sector, is the ergonomic pallet PL061<\/a>, which has a height greater than that of common pallets \u2013 35 cm high \u2013, more suitable for handling and handling products. Ideal for boxes, it can be used both on the ground and in pallet racks.<\/p>\n

Stackable, light and versatile, rotomolded plastic pallets are monobloc and have no seams, nails or splinters. Furthermore, they are easy to wash and sanitize. Therefore, they facilitate logistical operations and offer better ergonomics and safety to operators.<\/p>\n\n

Plastic pallets can be produced with customized dimensions, ergonomic designs, and varying load capacities. Therefore, they offer greater versatility of use, greater resistance, durability and security in logistics flows.<\/p>\n

Due to its long useful life, the plastic pallet can be reused several times, as it is made of polyethylene and is completely recyclable. Because it has these characteristics, it causes less environmental impact than wooden pallets<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As we have seen, logistical planning and the use of appropriate materials are fundamental to ensuring healthy conditions and efficiency in cargo transportation. The use of ergonomic plastic pallets helps to ensure good ergonomics for workers and increase safety, productivity and logistical efficiency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
