securement best practices

Securement best practices involve properly fastening and stabilizing objects or cargo to prevent movement or accidents during transport. Use appropriate straps, chains, or locking devices rated for the weight and type of item. Ensure all fasteners are in good condition and tightened securely. Regularly inspect securements for signs of wear or loosening, especially during long journeys. Distribute weight evenly to maintain balance and stability. Follow manufacturer guidelines and safety regulations to reduce risks. Proper securement protects personnel, cargo, and equipment, ensuring safe and efficient transportation.
