Description

When EPI Maintenance moved into its new premises, it took the time to think about the problems associated with its activity in order to organise the various workstations as well as possible. 

The company's move to new premises prompted the management to review its organisation in order to optimise safety conditions and the traceability of the PPE taken in charge.

From the reception of equipment to its return to the customer, each workstation was studied and improved according to the needs of the employees.

In particular, the positioning of the shelves has been modified to reduce the risk of musculoskeletal disorders

Lors de son emménagement dans de nouveaux locaux, EPI Maintenance a pris le temps de réfléchir aux problématiques liées à son activité afin d’organiser au mieux les différents postes de travail. 

L’emménagement de l’entreprise dans de nouveaux locaux a incité la direction à revoir son organisation pour optimiser les conditions de sécurité et la traçabilité des EPI pris en charge.

De la réception des équipements jusqu’à leur réexpédition au client, chaque poste a été étudié et amélioré en fonction des besoins des salariés.

Notamment, le positionnement des étagères a été modifié afin de réduire les risques de troubles musculosquelettiques
