The Order Picker Machine Safe Operating Procedure (SOP) gives a guide for safe and efficient operation of an order picker, helping your team manage the risks of working from a raised platform.
It covers the hazards (falls from the platform, falling objects, machine roll-over and overhead obstructions), the PPE to wear, a harness pre-check and pre-operational inspection, operator training, maintenance under lockout/tagout, and step-by-step operation: entry and exit, loading, travel, working on the elevated platform and picking, including loads of chemical containers.
A hazard checklist for powered mobile machinery, with Y, N and NA for each item, helps confirm every safety measure is in place before work starts.
