When going onto a construction site, you must stay safe and protected and comply with the law.
Protect your head and your feet
Working on a construction site is dangerous, so a yellow hard hat must be worn to protect you from falling debris and other hazards. Steel top-cap boots or shoes are also essential. Suppose you did try to get onto a site without these. In that case, the likelihood is you will be sent away as you are not wearing the correct personal protective equipment (PPE).
Be aware of your surroundings
Stay alert at all times on a construction site. There are potential risks everywhere, and more accidents occur when people are not paying attention.
Using power tools
When using power tools, wear additional PPE like gloves and safety glasses. We recommend also wearing earplugs so that the prolonged noise of a construction site does not damage your hearing.
