3. Recognizing Hazards Affecting Workers During Container Box Manufacturing

Container box manufacturing is a job that requires high professionalism and carefulness, especially in the fabrication and assembly stages. Some potential hazards for workers during container box manufacturing include:

• Hazards from equipment and machinery: During the manufacturing process, workers may come into contact with large machinery and equipment, especially during cutting, drilling, welding, operating forklifts, etc. If safety is not ensured, accidents can occur, causing injury or even death to workers.
• Hazards from materials: Container boxes are manufactured from materials such as steel, aluminum, iron, etc. These materials can pose dangers to workers, mainly during cutting, welding, or drilling operations. Smoke, dust, and UV rays can affect workers’ health.
• Hazards from heavy objects: Container box components are very heavy, so during assembly and movement, they can pose dangers to workers, especially when lifting equipment is used incorrectly.
• Hazards from electricity: If electrical equipment in the factory is not regularly maintained, lacks insulation, or is not waterproof, it can cause electric shock hazards to workers during manufacturing.
• Hazards from temperature and noise: During manufacturing, workers may be exposed to high temperatures and loud noise from machinery. High temperatures can cause burns and other injuries, while loud noise can cause permanent hearing damage.

4. Common Workplace Accidents for Workers During Container Box Manufacturing

Common workplace accidents for workers during container box manufacturing may include:

• Machinery accidents: The main hazard when working with machinery in a container box factory is machinery accidents, including entanglement, stabbing, crushing, cutting, or collision with hard objects.
• Chemical poisoning: Employees in container box factories may be poisoned when exposed to chemicals or toxic substances during manufacturing.
• Fire and explosion accidents: Due to welding, cutting, grinding, painting, and gas handling, container box factories have a high risk of fire and explosion.
• Falls and falling from height: Working at height or on lifting equipment in container box factories poses the risk of falls and falling to the ground.
• Incorrect clothing and not using protective gear: Employees not wearing full protective gear, including helmets, safety glasses, safety shoes, gloves, and masks, are at risk of serious injuries or chemical poisoning.

5. Safety Measures When Participating in Container Box Manufacturing

Safety measures when participating in container box manufacturing include:
