Whether located inside or outside, conveyor belts can hinder operational efficiency and create significant safety concerns. Depending on the configuration, workers may be required to walk long distances to get around a conveyor belt. Others may attempt to climb over the conveyor belt, resulting in serious or even fatal injuries.
Conveyor crossover stairs provide a designated passageway. This allows employees to navigate the workplace safely and efficiently without difficulty. The owner of the facility featured in the image below contacted SafeRack to inquire about a solution to give workers a safe passageway over a large outdoor conveyor belt. The SafeRack team installed ErectaStep’s OHSA-compliant crossover stairs. The stairs feature heavy-duty railings, slip-resistant surfaces, and solid construction making them the perfect choice for locations that are exposed to the elements.
