Description
Working in the construction industry brings with it many challenges and dangers. Whether you are a painter, carpenter, electrician, plumber or roofer, your health and safety is priority number one at the worksite.
Employees need to be aware of the many different types of equipment that are utilized at the worksite. Such equipment might include forklifts, aerial lifts, bulldozers, excavators, and backhoes. Specific training on every piece of workplace equipment may not be required, but every employee should be cognizant of the characteristics and movements of the equipment. Only employees qualified by training or experience should be allowed to operate equipment and machinery. They also must understand that machinery, tools, or materials that are unsafe or not in proper order must be tagged and locked appropriately.
These are just a small sampling of important safety rules on a construction site. Employers must have safety programs in place to protect your workers from unsanitary, hazardous, or dangerous jobs. The first step to any safety program, however, is solid training. This training will help protect your new hires and workers already on-site by providing your new employees with a good foundation of safety knowledge.
