Construction safety is everyone’s responsibility. Whether you’re new to the job or have 20 years experience, it still only takes one slip up for a bad accident to occur. You must therefore always make safety your number one priority.
You may not realize it, but if you’re a new employee or have moved into a new job area, or you’re a contractor new to the site; you fall into high-risk category. You have a new job environment to familiarize yourself with. New site procedures and tasks to learn, new people to know and communicate with and new workplace pressures and hazards. All of this requires extra care and diligence on your part.
Construction sites account for a large proportion of workplace injuries. Poor training, inappropriate work methods, careless behaviour and inattentiveness are just some of the reasons why so many injuries and accidents occur.
