Do’s and Don’ts

Don’t:
1. Block fire points, emergency exits, or first aid stations,
2. Have operators rotate more than 90 degrees to either pick up or put
down product.
3. Lay utility lines (air, power, water) in an untidy or haphazard way; avoid
tripping hazards.
4. Use whistles, bells, or other audible systems to control the timing of the
product flow. Lights or count down devices may only be used in the
training period. Once the line is in sync any form of signal must be
removed.
5. Create overcrowded product lines or cells, allow sufficient space so that
employees can move freely to avoid accident.
6. Harass or pressure slow workers.
