The MSD challenge in logistics & postal
The risk where this work actually happens.
Parcel handling, decant and transport drive some of the highest manual-handling injury frequencies of any sector, across distributed depots and a high-turnover workforce.
How JointAction supports logistics & postal
Evidence in, prevention out.
Assess handling tasks at scale across the depot network.
Build role demand profiles for recruitment, induction and return-to-work.
Prioritise the highest-consequence tasks first.
Hold a defensible record across the whole network.
At scale
One large customer with depots in 135 locations has run more than 200,000 manual-task risk assessments to date.
A shared-kit model across a depot network is what makes organisation-wide assessment possible: trained assessors drawn from the workforce, around 10 minutes per assessment, and a library that grows with every shift. That density is what turns handling risk from something you sample into something you manage.
