U.S. Warehousing & Distribution
Industry Overview

The warehousing and distribution industry has become a vital component of modern commerce, employing over 1.8 million workers in the U.S. and growing rapidly due to e-commerce, third-party logistics (3PL), and global supply chain demands. Facilities often run 24/7 operations, moving thousands of goods per hour using a mix of human labor and automation.

With this speed comes risk. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, warehouse workers face elevated rates of struck-by injuries, forklift collisions, repetitive strain, and falls—especially when PPE protocols are overlooked. In fact, warehousing ranks among the top 10 most hazardous industries for nonfatal injuries.

The Critical Role of PPE
in Warehouse Safety

PPE in warehousing is all about movement and protection. It must shield workers from slips, machinery, and manual handling injuries—while remaining light, breathable, and non-restrictive to match the pace of picking, packing, and loading.

Common warehouse hazards addressed by PPE:

  • Falling boxes or improperly stacked inventory

  • Pallet jacks, forklifts, conveyor systems, and automation equipment

  • Repetitive lifting, bending,
or twisting

  • Cold storage zones or poorly ventilated hot areas

  • Walking surface hazards from spills or uneven flooring
