Nearly 5,200 workers were killed in work-related incidents in 2016. This is nearly 100 people per week. A portable material hoist, which is specifically designed to prevent many of these accidents, could have prevented many of them. Learn more about the safety of your employees and the four benefits these machines offer.

Construction hoists can be used on any job site for many reasons. You will be able to save time and avoid wasting materials moving around the site. You can also avoid the risks associated with climbing up and falling stairs and ladders, which can result in injuries such as slipped disks or strained muscles.

Fewer Accidents

Most accidents happen in warehouses or on construction sites where employees lack training or don’t have the right equipment. Employees are often crushed or hit by objects, which is why they are the most frequent cause of death at work. Employees are more likely than others to fall or drop items if they don’t have the right tools like an electric material lift. The portable material hoist can lift and transfer items from shelves onto trucks. These hoists can be used for forklifts or dollies as well as hand trucks.

Fewer Injuries

Workers are less likely to be injured if they haven’t got at least a small hoist. Warehouse and construction workers are more likely to sustain injuries to their nerves, muscles, and tendons. A hoist can be used to transport heavy or unusually shaped loads. It also has wheels and swivel casters that allow for easy shipping and receiving.

Minimal product damage

You will have less product damage if your employees use a portable hoist. You won’t see products being dropped or broken as often, as this is what happens when products are carried or moved by hand. Instead, products can be placed on the hoist and the machine will do the rest. You can expect your equipment to last for a long time if it is properly stored, cleaned, and maintained.

Productivity Increases

A hoist can make your employees more productive in the warehouse or on construction sites. A hoist will not tire workers out if they have to move multiple items. This will allow you to move items faster and more efficiently. This will make your employees happier, more comfortable, and reduce burnout.

Reduced costs

The right equipment can help you save money and increase your income. You will be able to create and move more products if you are more productive. You will meet customer demand if you can speed up your process. This can help you save money and grow your business.

You can make a huge difference in your business with portable material hoists. You don’t have to look far at how they can benefit your business if you don’t use them.
