Role & responsibilities
Operational & Dock Safety
Dock Safety Management: Enforce Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for the loading/unloading area. Ensure vehicle chocks, dock levelers, and bumpers are used correctly to prevent "trailer creep" or accidental falls.
Traffic Management: Define and monitor pedestrian-free zones at the dock. Manage the "Green Zone" for driver waiting areas and ensure zero-overlap between MHE (Material Handling Equipment) and personnel.
Permit to Work (PTW) System: Act as the sole 'Issuing Authority' for all high-risk activities. No third-party or internal work (Hot Work, Height Work, Confined Space, or Heavy Maintenance) is to commence without a signed
PTW.
2
Electrical Safety & LOTO (Lockout-Tagout)
LOTO Implementation: Establish and enforce a strict Lockout-Tagout-Tryout (LOTOTO) protocol for all conveyor maintenance, battery charging stations, and electrical panels.
Electrical Audits: Conduct monthly inspections of MHE charging points (Lithium-ion/Lead-acid) to prevent thermal runaway or fire hazards. Ensure all DBs (Distribution Boards) are locked and rubber mats are in place as per Indian
Electricity Rules.
3
Rack Integrity & Structural Compliance
Stability Certificates: Coordinate with DISH-approved structural engineers to obtain and renew Building/Rack
Stability Certificates as per the Factories Act, 1948.
Rack Load Management: Ensure every rack has a visible Load Application and Rack Configuration (LARC) sign.
Daily Rack Checks: Inspect for "buckled" uprights or missing safety pins. Mark damaged racks with "Red Tags" for immediate isolation.
4
Induction & Training Programs
New Employee Safety Induction: Conduct a mandatory safety orientation for all new joiners (Pickers, Packers,
DEs) covering fire exits, PPE usage, and emergency assembly points.
Visitor Induction:
Manage the "Gate Entry" safety protocol. Every visitor must undergo a 5-minute safety briefing and wear a "Visitor" high-vis vest before entering the warehouse floor.
Manual Handling Training: Provide specialized training on "Safe Lifting" to reduce ergonomic injuries during the quick picking of grocery crates.
5
Monthly Safety Dashboard: Compile and share a comprehensive Monthly Safety Report with the Central
Safety Team, including:
Leading Indicators: Near-misses reported, training man-hours, and audit scores.
Lagging Indicators: LTI (Lost Time Injuries) and First Aid cases.
Compliance Status: Validity of Fire NOC, Stability Certificates, and PTW logs.
Incident Investigation: Lead the Root Cause Analysis (RCA) for any onsite incident and ensure "Corrective and
Preventive Actions" (CAPA) are closed within 48 hours.
6
Emergency Preparedness & Mock Drills
On-Site Emergency Plan (OEP): Develop and maintain a site-specific emergency response plan for fire, chemical spills (HAZMAT), and medical emergencies.
Mock Drills: Schedule and lead monthly mock drills (Fire, Evacuation, or Electrical short circuits). Document the
"Response Time" and "Evacuation Effectiveness" in a formal report.
Emergency Equipment: Ensure 100% readiness of fire hydrants, extinguishers, manual call points (MCPs), and public address (PA) systems.
7
Awareness & Safety Trainings
Awareness Campaigns: Organize National Safety Week, "Fire Safety Month," and seasonal awareness posters/contests to keep safety "top of mind."
Specialized Training: Provide hands-on training for Manual Handling (Safe Lifting), Fire Extinguisher usage, and
First Aid.
