rehandling

Second time through

Rehandling is the act of handling something again—moving, touching, or processing it a second time.

The term appears most often in logistics and warehousing, where rehandling adds labor costs and increases the risk of damage: Every rehandling of the cargo slows delivery.

It can also mean reconsidering or reworking something: The essay needed rehandling before submission.
