Analysis of Factors contributing to Warehousing Risk Management and operations: A quantitative Assessment

This study presents a comprehensive analysis of factors influencing warehousing risk management. Critical components such as warehousing management, staff quality, safety practices, inventory, theft, and government policies pose a serious risk to warehouse management which likely affect the operational supply chain of warehouse effectiveness. The research employed a quantitative approach using a structured questionnaire distributed among the warehouse personnel, and data collated from 71 responses were tested for reliability and level of significance using Cronbach’s Alpha and analysis of variance (ANOVA). Horizontal bar graphs categorizing various risk components labeled A to E. The graph illustrates the percentage of agreement from respondents regarding the validity of each, highlighting  A3:83% of warehouse management and E1:83% of warehouse theft as the most critical contributors to warehousing management risk, while A10:49.3% of warehouse management demonstrates lower consensus. The findings underscore the importance of comprehensive risk management for improving warehouse efficiency, balancing supply and demand, and enhancing competitiveness in dynamic industrial environments.
