With regard to:
“A site analysis by AINA hired engineer may be required. The 3PL's Environment, Health & Safety Office will be required to complete a safety requirement check-list. A site risk assessment by an AINA hired engineer will be performed prior to the initiation of operations with AINA. The assessment must show that the 3PL’s premises comply with AINA’s safety requirements. Should this not be the case, a satisfactory correction plan must be agreed upon prior to operations commencing.”
The Warehouse needs to know what AINA’s safety requirements are so we can determine if those requirements may affect us (financially & operationally).
