Utility Carts - Attributing to Safety in the Workplace

Posted on Tuesday 17 January 2006


Utility carts are by far a safer way to move and transport heavy office equipment, than relying on human strength. The Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates the number of non-fatal workplace injuries/illnesses for 2004 at a staggering 4.4 million. A significant portion of these injuries are incurred by using improper technique while lifting objects heavier than 20 lbs. Utility carts, properly used, can reduce the number of injuries, saving valuable resources in injury claims and days missed. Utility carts should be made of steel, easy to maneuver on well-designed casters, and be tall enough to be pushed without bending.

Utility carts from Versa Products are designed with safety in mind. They’re durable, constructed from strong 14 gauge steel, and arrive assembled. Non-marking lockable castors and feet prevent slipping, even when positioned in a high-traffic area. Versa offers a variety of mobile carts in different heights.
