Weather and cold and flu season are both a danger and a thief. Wet or icy weather in your work area means there is danger of slips, trips and falls. Workers injured on the job may take weeks to recover and aren’t easily replaced. Exposure to elements during the stress of the work day weakens the immune system of dock workers and increases sick days and down time. Using an extra-length laminated dock bumper to seal your facility during loading and unloading will save your time and money with better working conditions, less worker downtime and less damage or stress to cargo during severe weather.
