COMPANIES ARE USING THIS SOFTWARE TO SLASH REPORTABLE INCIDENTS

SHARE:


Seve CarneraSolutions Consultant, FourKites
Best PracticesYard Management & Facilities

SHARE:



With both your employees and vendors operating around heavy machinery, be sure
you’re armed with the right visibility tools

Each day, your yard hosts hundreds of people from your company and across your
network of stakeholders. They come together with one common goal: to safely and
efficiently manage your business’ supply chain. Yet even with proper training
and precaution, your yard provides ample opportunity for a workplace accident,
putting your business at serious risk for liability.

You may have a robust safety protocol in place, but there are still areas to
improve your ability to prevent incidents and communicate hazards to your
employees and outside visitors. Procedural policies – three points of contact,
safety vests, etc. – help tell individuals how to behave safely, but how do you
monitor the environment they perform their activities in?


MINIMIZE UNPROTECTED PEOPLE IN THE YARD

One of the most vulnerable places you can be on the highway is in a  vehicle’s 
blindspot – now bring that to the yard and imagine you’re walking through a maze
of trailers. That’s what your yard spotter is probably doing right now as they
take inventory. Simply having someone walking around poses a significant risk
for an avoidable accident in the yard.

Next-era Yard Management Systems (YMS) that can manage RFID tags can take your
crew off the yard and put them inside a safe truck. This not only virtually
eliminates the risks associated with trailer inventory, it also creates a highly
accurate map of your yard within a few minutes.


IMMEDIATELY ALERT EVERYONE OF A HAZARD

Hazardous events can turn deadly. When hundreds of people need to be alerted to
a safety or security concern, instant communication is a must.

While traditional broadcast systems can be clunky or have holes in coverage,
there are systems available today that can push notifications to mobile devices
across your enterprise, with a direct connection to a system that logs its
current occupants. This ensures real-time information reaches those who need it
most and that everybody is informed.


MONITOR A MAJOR POINT OF FAILURE WITH REAL-TIME DATA

25% of warehouse injuries occur at the dock, making it an incredibly important
part of your safety strategy. When drivers are waiting in the cab for product to
be loaded, miscommunication about whether their trailer is still being loaded
can happen. In some instances, a driver could pull a trailer while a forklift is
still onboard or in its process of departing, causing serious injury, loss of
product and equipment.

Modern YMS systems can help you know if a load is still being worked on with a
signal light to keep drivers aware of their trailer’s status. In the future,
dock doors equipped with the latest sensors can mitigate the potential for teams
to disengage a trailer while it is still being worked on. This level of added
assurance safeguards the possibility of human error, which can cause serious
incidents to occur with multiple parties.


USING A YMS TO BOLSTER ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY

The next generation of YMS can handle all of these capabilities within a single
platform while advancing your business strategy with actionable insights. With
leaner crews working around the clock to manage your surging supply chain,
there’s a higher risk today for an unsafe situation to go unchecked.

Truck drivers benefit from maximizing their time in-cab in the yard, avoiding
the potential for injuries and minimizing time spent in rest areas. This slashes
costs and improves efficiency as you continue to make your yard a safer, less
costly part of your supply chain.

What makes a YMS an even greater investment is its business operational impact
beyond the safety benefits. Companies that implement a YMS not only strengthen
their commitment to safety, they can reduce detention charges, retrieve product
inventory faster from the yard and promote a stronger connection between your
stakeholders and the yard.


MAKE YOURSELF AN EMPLOYER OF CHOICE

Warehouse labor is in high demand these days – and when you’re offering the same
compensation and the same benefits, how do you differentiate yourself? A YMS,
like Dynamic Yard, not only reduces the time spent on menial tasks, it reaffirms
your commitment to keeping your workforce safe. In today’s labor environment,
every step you take to show your team that their safety is your number one
priority will only help drive retention and make you an employer of choice.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The time to act is now when improving your yard safety program. If you’re
looking to see how a YMS like Dynamic Yard can improve your team’s safety scores
while delivering savings and service, contact your FourKites representative or
email us at hello@fourkites.com.
