How the GHE Solution Optimizes Pre-Loader WorkFlows

3 Nov, 2025

The pre-loader job requires workers to wake up at 2-3 o'clock in the morning. This goes against natural human health. At GHE Solution, we believe an optimal start time for pre-loaders is at 7 a.m., not 3 to 4 a.m.

Currently, the two main risks for pre-loaders are spending too much time inside the vehicle and lifting heavy packages to the top layers of the cargo bay.

Spending too much time in the vehicle causes packages on the assembly line to inevitably flow away by the time the pre-loader returns from loading packages into the vehicle. In some cases, this causes an overflow of packages at the end of the assembly line. As a result, workers spend a lot of time searching for their own packages in the overflow pile, creating a vicious cycle.

When pre-loaders load the delivery vehicles, they need to lift heavy packages up to the top layer of the vehicle's cargo bay and then organize them. This task has been prone to causing DS injuries. The work is both physically demanding and time-consuming. Additionally, packages often have multiple delivery stickers. Removing old stickers and applying new ones is known to cause nail injuries.

As for the current DS scanning technology, the Ring Scanner FedEx uses is very heavy, and the magic strap breaks quite easily. After the magic straps break, the pre-loaders have to use the ring scanner as a small handheld wireless scanner, which does not achieve the goal of freeing their hands like the Ring Scanner is supposed to do. At the same time, the wireless connection between the Ring Scanner and the wearable device is unreliable and frequently disconnects, resulting in wasted time due to repeated pairing and reconnection.

Pre-loaders spend much of their time making sure the packages are in their designated sections and arranged correctly. Unfortunately, in the current delivery mode, the pre-loader's efforts are largely ineffective because, when the vehicle hits steep slopes, sharp turns, sudden brakes, or similar conditions, the packages quickly become disorganized, forcing the driver to constantly reorganize them on their own.
