Stacking
  • Falling materials and collapsing loads can cause injuries or death to workers.

Injuries can occur when items are not stacked properly, whether palletized, on racking, or stacked in some other manner. Falling materials and collapsing loads can crush or pin workers, causing injuries or death.

Workers should stack materials no higher than specified limits for the material. Stacks should be stable and self-supporting.

Stacking should be done in such a manner that prevents rolling or shifting of the material being stored.
