Don't fall out of the warehouse!

 
Another illustration taken from "Your personal safety - Cartage and Handling Staff". This one is particularly pertinent to me.
 
The back of Melbridge Dock features some large warehouses based on those found at Gloucester Docks. In one of the doorways is a docker helping guide a load being hauled up on the hoist from the ground.
 
First installed in 1988, I've never got around to providing him with the essential safety strap that the chap in the cartoon is so pleased with. Mind you, his feet and hand are well glued in place - not something you can do to real people, especially if you expect them to do some useful work!
