Abstract

This paper addresses the complex and dynamic nature of warehouse operations, highlighting the critical role they play in the overall supply chain. Warehouses are exposed to a variety of static and dynamic processes that operate in a turbulent environment, where both internal and external threats can significantly impact performance and productivity. Effective risk management and security measures are crucial to maintaining the smooth functioning of these operations, as errors can lead to financial losses, waste, and damage to the reputation of a company. The research explores the challenges in decision-making related to resource management and safety procedures within warehouses, focusing on identifying potential threats, understanding the causes of inventory discrepancies, and evaluating the effectiveness of existing safety systems. The study, grounded in extensive national and international literature and ongoing research initiated in 2015, aims to assess the impact of technical and non-technical systems on warehouse management amidst various threats. The findings, derived from surveys conducted in Polish warehouses, are presented through tables, diagrams, and annotations, providing insights into enhancing safety and operational efficiency in this critical area of the supply chain. The publication addresses the research question: How do technical and non-technical systems impact warehouse management amid various threats? Its goal is to evaluate theeffectiveness of methods and strategies that enhance safety in Polish warehouses.
