"There are no specific regulations that are a standard of regulations just for a warehouse but there are a lot of regulations that apply to work in a warehouse. Some of the primary regulations would involve material handling and how they're going to handle the material they're storing or they're moving around or stacking in the warehouse. So there's some very specific regulations about forklifts that might be used to move pallets of material around the warehouse. There's very specific regulations about how material may be stacked on racks or even stacked on top of each other. There are requirements of what type of personal protection employees may use. If they're having to use knives to cut boxes open or if they're around places where they could get things in their eyes. There's also regulations related to employees about falling off of things if they're having to climb onto thing to help store the material. So it's really a bunch of other regulations that might apply to work in a warehouse as opposed to having a specific set of regulations for warehouse work."
