During loading, you see a coworker about to stack heavy pallets directly on top of hazmat containers marked with an orientation arrow pointing up. What should you do?
Pick an answer
Correct!
Not quite. The correct answer is highlighted.
Correct answer to question 98 (Hazardous Materials): Say something, since orientation markings mean the container must stay upright and unstacked in that way, not have weight placed on top
Why
An orientation arrow is a safety instruction tied to how that specific material needs to be kept, and ignoring it by stacking weight on top can lead to a leak or container failure.
