Use safe handling procedures according to each chemical's Material Safely
Data Sheet (MSDS).

Conduct stock takes and maintain inventory records.

Accurately locate and select the right stock from pick lists and orders on a
first-fin, first-out basis.

Recognize situations where products or chemicals may be at risk, e.g.
spillage, broken pack, missing labels.

Safely operate picking machinery, such as a forklift or bay picker.

Accurately enter stock into the computer system inventory and maintain
accurate paper records.

Preventing contamination and deterioration

To prevent possible contamination or deterioration of materials during
warehousing, there are some important warehouse rules that must be followed:

No packs should be left unsealed. This prevents possible dirt contamination
from the environment or pest infestation.

All chemicals and products must be stored within their labeled temperature
zones, for example, products labeled:

- Store at 2°C-8°C.
- Do not freeze.
- Store below 25°C.

Use a first-in, first-out (FIFO) system. Chemicals and medicinal products
deteriorate over time, and generally have expiry dates. Not rotating stock

could result in partly degraded or aged materials being issued.

Follow the chemical spillage procedures to ensure that personnel and other
products are protected. Report all incidents to supervision.

Keep outer doors and exits closed whenever not in use. Outside dirt and pests

may contaminate the stock.
