Don’t make the mistake of taking shortcuts when it comes to implementing safety protocols for your warehouse. Investing in safety can provide your employees with greater job satisfaction while at the same time reducing injury-related absences. The money that you put into creating a safe work environment will more than pay for itself by improving productivity, increasing employee satisfaction, and reducing workplace accidents and injuries.

Consider implementing the following warehouse safety practices to create a safer work environment for your employees:

1. Make Safety Equipment Mandatory

Don’t leave it up to your employees as to whether or not they want to use safety equipment – make it mandatory. All heavy lifting should be done using hydraulic dollies or forklifts to prevent back injuries. Invest in hard hats and safety glasses for workers, specifying all of the circumstances under which these items should be worn. Mark all of your emergency exits clearly, using signs that are eye-catching and easy to understand. Invest in a sprinkler system for your building and make sure to properly maintain it.

Although getting your warehouse set up for safety does take a relatively large upfront investment, it will pay for itself over time by helping to minimise workplace injuries and by reducing absenteeism.

2. Address Potential Hazards

Set up recurring safety inspections for your warehouse. Pay particular attention to items that employees could slip on or trip over such as spilt fluids or loose electrical cords. Examine the floor itself, as well, looking for any cracks or uneven areas that could cause your workers to fall or that could damage your equipment.

3. Train Employees How to Lift Heavy Items Safely

All employees should be educated on proper lifting techniques. They should start by identifying the best method for transporting each item that … Read More ...

India is supposed to have one of the largest subscribers of DTH today in the entire world. As per a report published in 2017, there were 66.99 million active paid subscribers in the country excluding the subscribers who access free DTH service.

Till about the end of the last decade most of us watched popular channels on TV and our favorite programs through cable network.  The broadcaster or the TV channels were tied up with the cable networks and against a monthly subscription value the cable network was available at our homes. In 2000, the scenario was set to change and by 2010 most homes in urban India had shifted to DTH service. The reasons behind the success of DTH are:

1. Flexibility of choosing the channels is with the customer in DTH. Choose a bouquet pack or create your own package with channels of your choice. There is also the option of adding a particular channel at any point in time. These are not available with cable TV.
2. Flexibility of temporary suspension of one’s account especially if one is travelling out of town for sometime which could a period of few days to few months. Once back in town, the services can be resumed within minutes by DTH Recharge. With cable TV, you would need to pay the subscriber fees every month irrespective of whether you are home or not.
3. In the event of power cut in the area, the Cable TV network will also be suspended till power resumes back. With a DTH service, if one has power backup facilities like inverters or generators with which the TV is connected, you will be able to enjoy your favorite programs as DTH service providers operate 24×7.
4. DTH Recharge is easy and convenient as it can be done online from

The Enterprise Database; a modern marvel; a harmony of bits and bytes culminating in a digital symphony of information and instruction: Tempo, ad infinitum.

The conductor: The Administrator.
The Audience: The Client.
The Orchestra: The Employees.
The Composer: The software developer.

The curtain rises, and the conductor taps his baton. The Orchestra focuses, and so begins another day at the office. Your enterprise server system is the heart of your whole operation. There is very specific programming which uses a ‘Structured Query Language’ or SQL, to operate massive databases upon which companies, both large and small, rely. This language and its programming are unique in implementation and operation and is the industry standard for database operation and function.

As your servers serve and tirelessly and endlessly do your bidding, they also report their status and condition to the admin department. These functionality reports and periodic status reports are critical, and the IT staff must be aware of the condition of your database servers always: always! Enter the comprehensive monitoring powerhouse. A software tool with the ability to monitor every aspect of the SQL Server database condition and relay any required information, report or status alert to the proper authorities via the magnificent Cloud. Pretty cool huh?

Come in out of the digital rain and dry yourself off. opt for a method that has been proven by those who have created it and is coveted by those who swear by it. The enterprise business world is marching in lock-step to the sweet sounds of a digital composition being performed by a Cyber Pied Piper. This path, however, leads to operational enterprise harmony and good will towards the binary 1’s and 0’s which offer us all a world in tune with the databases upon which we all rely.

There is a wide range of environment that managers work in and the work of a manager in construction will be very different to one in a large supermarket. The typical duties will vary depending on where you are going to work, but there are certain things to expect. These things will include the attending of internal and customer meetings as well as elements of people management.

The Training You Get as a Manager

Graduate management training schemes will vary depending on the employer, but they will all provide you with the skills, training and knowledge that you need to be a successful manager. The training will often have on-the-job training as well as formal training sessions. There are also some schemes that have a mentorship.

With a mentorship program, the graduate will be paired with an experienced and senior mentor. There are other schemes that focus on an intensive, in-store training course which will provide you with commercial skills in certain areas including HR, leadership and finance. External training programmes with reputed companies like GBS Corporate Training may also be an option for further training in some organisations.

Getting a Qualification as a Trainee Manager

There are some management training programmes which offer you support in getting a formal qualification. This could be a postgraduate degree or another professional qualification from one of the industry bodies. An example of this kind of scheme is the NHS management programme which has led to postgraduate certification in healthcare leadership. The qualification could also be specific depending on a specialism such as the CIMA qualification for graduates who are in finance management training schemes.

There are also some training schemes where the employers will put the graduate through a masters degree in business administration. However, this … Read More ...
