Abstract:
Our research, "A Descriptive Analysis on Safety Protocols Within Logistics Company's Warehouse Operation," highlights the critical need for enhanced safety protocols in logistics warehouses. Despite Manila's potential as a major logistics hub, significant oversight in warehouse safety persists. This study, conducted at CargoHaus Inc. and Philippine Airport Ground Support Solutions, Inc. (PAGSS), focused on warehouse personnel and operators, using a purposive convenience sampling method. The researchers aimed to analyze current safety measures, assess compliance, identify types of accidents and accidents, determine areas for improvement, and evaluate the effectiveness of existing protocols in warehouse operations.The Quantitative analysis indicated strong agreement on the clarity and effectiveness of safety signs and regular equipment inspections. Compliance with safety protocols was high, supported by thorough training and mandatory reporting. Understanding safety protocols and enforcing mandatory safety gear usage reduced workplace accidents, primarily cuts, wound, and fall. Effective safety protocols significantly impacted employees' physical health, enhancing their sense of security. In conclusion, the study offers recommendations to improve safety protocols, equipment, and training, contributing to a safer logistics workplace and informing future research study.
