Description
DB Schenker and BUNZL North America move millions of products each day in distribution centers across the country. The manual material handling in these warehouses creates exposure to stressors leading to musculoskeletal disorders (MSD’s). Preventing and managing these MSD’s is an important focus for these companies to protect employees and maximize efficiency. Spend this time with us to learn how both DB Schenker and BUNZL North America initiated their injury prevention programs, the maturation and growth that has occurred and the results achieved. This workshop will provide time for a panel discussion with safety representatives from DB Schenker, BUNZL North America and Atlas IPS.
