Dock Loading & Unloading Training

What will I learn?
This course covers the full scope of dock operations, including scheduling (operational planning of vehicle and driver rosters for transport services) workflows, documentation, and equipment use. You will learn how to identify and control workplace hazards, use personal protective equipment correctly, and respond to emergencies. Forklift pre-operation inspections, safe load (freight load or cargo weight) handling, and cargo securement techniques are covered in detail. You will also gain a solid understanding of hazardous materials handling, cold chain requirements, and yard management. Supervisors will find dedicated content on shift planning, carrier (road or rail freight operator) relationships, and performance coaching. By the end, you will have the knowledge to protect your team, move freight efficiently, and meet regulatory requirements every shift.
