• Description:
  Employers: Invest in tarping stations or rolling staircases. Workers: Ask the forklift driver to put the tarp on top of the load for you. Use a partner to help put on and pull off the tarp. Stay aware of the edge of the trailer or load so you don't fall. Make sure you have stable footing if you use a ladder. [Description provided by NIOSH]
