We’re looking back at an incredible year for Mighty Line and the entire warehouse safety community.
This year, Mighty Line experienced tremendous momentum — growth that exceeded expectations and set new comp...
Material Storage & Racking Safety: Safe Stacking and Load Limits
Keeping a warehouse running efficiently depends on more than just fast movement and good organization. One often overlooked area is how materials are stacked and stored. Improper stacking doesn’t just lead to wasted space—it can also set the stage for serious injuries, product damage, and even structural failure. That’s...
Material Storage & Racking Safety: Storage Hazards in Warehouses
Whether you’re working third shift or early mornings, there’s one thing every warehouse has in common—stuff. And a lot of it. From raw materials to finished goods, pallets to parts, every inch counts. But how and where things are stored? That makes all the difference between a safe workspace and a ticking time bomb.
...
Incident Reporting & Root Cause Analysis: Tools for Root Cause Analysis
If something goes wrong in your facility, how you respond matters just as much as what happened. That’s where incident reporting and root cause analysis come in. These two things help us figure out why incidents happen—and more importantly, how to stop them from happening again.
It’s not just paperwork. ...
Incident Reporting & Root Cause Analysis: Digging Past “Human Error” to Find Root Causes
In safety, the phrase “human error” gets tossed around a lot. A pallet falls. A worker trips. A forklift crashes into a rack. The quick conclusion? “Someone messed up.” But stopping there doesn’t fix the issue. It just points fingers.
Week 4 of our Incident Reporting & Root Cause Ana...
Incident Reporting & Root Cause Analysis: How To Report An Incident Properly
If something goes wrong in your facility — whether it's a near miss, property damage, or an injury - how quickly and clearly you report it can make a massive difference. This process isn't just about paperwork. It's about preventing repeat incidents, protecting your team, and keeping the facility running saf...
Incident Reporting & Root Cause Analysis: Overcoming the Fear of Speaking Up
One of the strongest signs of a healthy safety culture is when team members feel confident enough to speak up and express their concerns. Not just about significant hazards—but also the small things. Loose cords. Leaky hoses. Unsafe stacking. If people remain quiet, minor issues can quickly escalate into sub...
Incident Reporting & Root Cause Analysis: Why Reporting Matters
Accidents don’t just happen out of nowhere. They’re usually the result of a missed warning sign, a skipped step, or a hazard that someone noticed—but never reported. That’s why incident reporting is one of the most critical safety tools we have in any warehouse.
Whether it’s a near-miss, a minor injury, or just ...
Respiratory Protection & Airborne Hazards: Keep It Clean, Keep It Safe
Let's talk about something you don't see—but definitely feel. Airborne hazards. Dust. Fumes. Mists. Vapors. The stuff that hangs in the air and messes with your lungs if you're not protected. That's where your respirator comes in. But a respirator's only as good as the condition it's in.
Week 4 is all abo...
Respiratory Protection & Airborne Hazards: Fit Testing and Medical Evaluations
Breathing is something we don’t think about—until it gets hard to do. In a warehouse environment, airborne hazards like dust, fumes, or chemical vapors can put workers at risk quickly. That’s where respiratory protection comes in. But having a respirator isn’t enough. It needs to fit correctly, be appropri...
Respiratory Protection & Airborne Hazards: Choosing the Right Type of Respirator
Airborne hazards in a warehouse aren’t always obvious. You might not see or smell them, but they’re there. Dust from pallet handling. Vapors from cleaning supplies. Fumes from battery charging areas. Each hazard is different, and so is the protection you need against it.
One of the top prioritie...
Respiratory Protection & Airborne Hazards: When Respirators Are Required
When we talk about air quality in a warehouse, most people think about temperature or maybe stale air. But there's a lot more to it. Dust from forklifts and pallets. Vapors from cleaning agents. Welding fumes. Even something as simple as packaging materials can throw airborne particles into the air. That's where...
Heat Stress, Hydration & Working Outdoors: Heat-Related Emergency Action Plans
Working in a warehouse during peak summer heat isn't only uncomfortable, but it can also be dangerous. Heat stress is a genuine concern that can quickly become a problem for individuals working in a hot environment. That's why emergency planning isn't just a box to check; it's an essential safety measure....
Heat Stress, Hydration & Working Outdoors: Clothing and PPE for Hot Environments
Working in a warehouse during peak summer heat isn't only uncomfortable, but it can also be dangerous. Heat stress doesn't wait for lunchtime or breaks. It builds fast, especially when you're wearing the wrong gear. One of the top priorities of a solid Safety Culture is protecting workers from heat-rela...
Heat Stress, Hydration & Working Outdoors: Prevention Strategies
Summer heat in a warehouse or out on the yard can be brutal. You feel it the second you step out—thick air, hot surfaces, sweat starting almost instantly. And if you’re lifting, moving, or on your feet all day, it’s more than just uncomfortable. It can turn dangerous before you know it.
A strong Safety Culture...
Heat Stress, Hydration & Working Outdoors: Recognizing Heat-Related Illnesses
Working in high temperatures can be dangerous. Heat stress isn’t just an outdoor problem. It can also happen inside a warehouse, especially when ventilation is poor or equipment generates excessive heat. Heat-related illnesses can escalate fast, so recognizing the signs and acting quickly is critical.

Electrical Safety Awareness: Emergency Response
Electrical hazards can turn routine tasks into life-threatening situations in seconds. Knowing how to respond during an electrical emergency is critical to protecting lives. Quick, correct action can prevent further injury and even save a co-worker’s life. A strong safety culture starts with awareness and preparation.
When ...
Electrical Safety Awareness: Lockout Tagout Safety
Cutting power is the most effective way to mitigate risk. Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) for electrical systems prevents every conveyor, shrink-wrap machine, and charging station from starting unexpectedly while personnel work inside the guard. It’s a simple promise: no voltage, no surprise. Break that promise, and the motor doesn’t care who’s in...
Electrical Safety Awareness: Tool and Equipment Safety
Electricity drives every conveyor, lift, and label printer in the facility. Yet the same current that powers production can stop it in a flash. Electrical tool and equipment safety means giving cables, plugs, and power strips the same attention you give forklifts and dock doors. A frayed cord or misused extension might look harmless ...
Electrical Safety Awareness: Qualified vs. Unqualified Personnel
One spark can shut down a whole loading line. That’s why a strong safety culture keeps electrical work in the right hands and out of everyone else’s. Qualified vs. Unqualified Personnel is more than a label—it’s a line that protects every pallet, product, and person in the facility.
A qualified employee has the tra...
