The primary disadvantage of materials handling is that the handler can be injured while doing it, especially if it is done manually and incorrectly or without adequate handling aids.
Materials handling can result in costly damage to the items being handled, again if not done with care and appropriate aids.
Materials handling can also be unnecessarily costly if the items are handled more often than absolutely necessary, even if not damaged and no one is injured.
Careful planning, design and operation of the materials handling process can minimize or eliminate many of these disadvantages.
