Safety Update

Power Equipment Operation 

Power equipment is an essential part of our business used to move, lift and stack pallets and gaylords. Without power equipment, many things we do daily would be impossible to do.   

Operating power equipment is a job that carries great responsibility. With that responsibility comes special training and annual refresher training. The training you receive is mandated by OSHA.     

How old do you need to be to use power equipment? (Answer: 18 years old)    

Before operating any piece of power equipment, an equipment inspection must be performed and documented. OSHA requires pre-use inspections for a very good reason...SAFETY! Any equipment that does not pass a safety inspection must be put out of service to prevent anyone from using it. Using faulty power equipment can lead to serious injury.

Wellness

Attitude of Gratitude Challenge

Who: All team members and program participants.

What: As we enter the holiday season, take time to reflect and think about all that you are thankful for this year. Expressing gratitude can improve sleep, mood and immunity, and can decrease depression, anxiety, chronic pain and disease (Source: American Heart Association).

When: November 16 - 26, 2025

Details: Each day during the challenge think about 1-3 things you are thankful for. Please do not write your responses on the log but instead keep your thoughts in a journal or collect your responses in a jar. Place a check in the box for the days you completed the challenge.
