WAREHOUSE RACKING SAFETY GUIDE
Protect your employees with the SEMA checklist.
Warehouse Owners!
Did you know...you're responsible for your warehouse racking safety?!
Let's face it, every warehouse owner dreads operational downtime.
It only takes one section of your racking to become damaged, resulting in part of your warehouse being out of action. Your profitability could suffer drastically due to damaged stock, prolonged delivery times, and a decrease in order fulfillment.
Even worse, it's risking the safety of your employees. If that damage to your racking results in stock falling to the ground, there is the potential for a serious accident.
But damaged racking is preventable.
The problem is, most warehouse owners and managers either wait until there is a major issue before taking action or think it's a job left to their racking supplier. Take this approach and you are putting your business at risk.
As the warehouse owner or manager, you are legally responsible for following the correct steps in your warehouse racking's safety.
Inside our warehouse racking safety guide, you'll find simple dos and don'ts for using racking systems, helping you to keep your employees safe and protect your business.

About SEMA
While it might not be immediately obvious to you, there is a very high chance that the work of SEMA has, in some way, positively impacted the quality and safety of your racking equipment.
For over 50 years we’ve been working hard to improve standards within the storage equipment industry. Whether it's developing Codes of Practice and technical guidance that informs on the safe design, installation and use of pallet racking, delivering training programmes or developing an association of Approved Members who follow our high standards. Each step ultimately filters down towards the racking in your warehouse – helping to make it safe.
Our advice isn’t about ticking boxes — it’s about preventing accidents, cutting risk, and making sure your storage systems can handle the pressure of daily operations.
Whether you run a small site or a national distribution hub, SEMA gives you the tools to meet your legal duties and stay ahead of racking problems before they turn into shutdowns or fines.
No fluff. Just the facts you need to stay compliant and in control.
