Safety Hazards Protocol and Disclosure for all Car Wash Porters

Safety is our priority. While the car wash is in operation there are several potential hazards that employees need to be aware of and react appropriately towards. Firstly, no vehicle should be directed into a car wash before it is checked whether anyone is walking across or in the area. Employees should keep eye contact with drivers when walking in front of their vehicles and keep a safe distance when walking behind them. Employees should neither touch the car once it is moving through the car wash or touch moving parts inside the tunnel. Care should be taken not to leave anything in the tunnel that a car could run over or could get wrapped up in moving equipment. No employees should cross the track to prepare a vehicle while it is rolling down the conveyor or for any other reason during the wash process. Hands and feet should be kept free of the roller doors that open and close at the front and rear of a tunnel. event of a problem, the emergency stop button is located inside the tunnel. 

Safety Gear is mandatory and part of the Car Wash Dress Code and Safety Protocol. As a Company, we adopted all safety measures to operate the Car Wash most effectively and safely for our Employees by developing a workplace Injury and Illness Prevention Program. Your health and well-being matter to us greatly.
