WAREHOUSING AND DISTRIBUTION
Safety that keeps up with a moving warehouse.
Warehouses run on movement, and the risk moves with it. WHS One keeps forklift pre-starts, traffic and pedestrian hazards, incidents, inductions and site checks in one connected system that people can use on the floor rather than at a desk.
Forklifts, traffic and pedestrian interaction
The interaction between powered mobile plant and people on foot is the risk most warehouses watch closest. WHS One lets you hold that risk properly: the areas where plant and pedestrians meet, the controls you rely on such as marked walkways, exclusion zones, speed limits and gate procedures, and the checks that confirm those controls are still in place.
When a layout changes for a busy season, the register and the checks can change with it instead of describing last year's site.
Pre-starts on every unit
- Each forklift, reach truck, order picker, pallet jack and dock leveller can hold its own check.
- Operators scan a QR code on the unit and complete the correct pre-start on a phone.
- Faults raised in a pre-start can carry a follow up action with an owner and a due date.
- Missed and overdue pre-starts stay visible instead of being noticed weeks later.
Hazards, incidents and actions
Damaged racking, a leaking pallet, a blocked exit or a near miss at a dock door can be reported from where it is seen. Each report can produce actions that are tracked to completion, so the fix is recorded and not left to a verbal handover between shifts.
Open actions, overdue checks and upcoming reviews appear together, which makes the week's priorities clear without building a spreadsheet.
Inductions and training for a changing crew
- Record site inductions for new starters, casuals, agency staff and visiting drivers.
- Keep forklift and high risk work licences in one register with visible expiry dates.
- See at a glance who is inducted for which site and which equipment.
- Keep the evidence attached to the person so it survives turnover.
Site checks and QR enabled floor workflows
Scheduled site checks cover racking condition, aisle housekeeping, dock and loading areas, emergency equipment and signage. A QR code at the work area opens the right check instantly, so it is completed in the aisle rather than remembered later.
Manufacturers use the same pattern around plant and lines. You can read the manufacturing page for that view, or see the connected modules on the home page.
What we do not claim
WHS One does not determine legal compliance and is not legal advice. It does not replace advice from an appropriately qualified professional or your regulator. It gives you one place to run the safety system and see what is current, what is due and what needs attention.
