  • PPE - Personal protective equipment is worn to minimize exposure to hazards that cause serious workplace injuries and illnesses.
    Rows
  • Ladders/Stairways - Working on and around stairways and ladders is hazardous. Stairways and ladders are major sources of injuries and fatalities among construction workers.
    Rows
  • General Fall Protection - Fall protection is the use of controls designed to protect personnel from falling or in the event they do fall, to stop them without causing severe injury. Typically, fall protection is implemented when working at heights over 6', but may be relevant when working near any edge, such as near a pit or hole, or performing work on a steep surface.
    Rows
  • Scaffolds - Each employee more than 10 feet above a lower level shall be protected from falls by guardrails or a fall arrest system.
    Rows
  • Excavations and Trenches - Employers must ensure that a competent person inspects all excavations, adjacent areas, and protective systems daily for possible cave-ins, indications of failures in protective systems and equipment, hazardous atmospheres, and other hazardous conditions. Inspections must be done prior to the start of work and as needed throughout the shift.

  • Electrical - Electrical hazards can cause burns, shocks and electrocution (death). Assume that all overhead wires are energized at lethal voltages.
    Rows
  • Cylinders - Mishandling compressed gas cylinders – which can have an internal pressure of up to 2,500 pounds per square inch – can be disastrous. Dropping, tipping over, or exposing a cylinder to heat can cause weaknesses or cracks in the cylinder’s shell, which can result in a shrapnel-laden explosion.
    Rows
  • Fire Prevention - A fire extinguisher is one of your first lines of defense in a small fire. If working on a multi-level structure, make sure there is access to an extinguisher on each floor. Extinguishers should be clearly-visible and easily accessible. According to OSHA 1926.150(c)(1)(i), an extinguisher shall be provided for every 3,000 square feet of the protected building.
    Rows
  • Tools and Equipment - Employees should be trained in the proper use of all tools. Workers should be able to recognize the hazards associated with the different types of tools and the safety precautions necessary.
    Rows
  • Confined Space - Work areas that (1) are large enough for an employee to enter, (2) have limited means of entry or exit, and (3) are not designed for continuous occupancy are deemed confined spaces. These spaces can present physical and atmospheric hazards that can be prevented if addressed prior to entering the space to perform work.
    Rows
  • Hazard Communication - All employers with hazardous chemicals in their workplaces must have labels and safety data sheets for their exposed workers, and train them to handle the chemicals appropriately.
    Rows
  • First Aid - First-aid kits should be provided at the work site or additional quantities of supplies should be included in the first-aid kits:1. Gauze pads (at least 4 x 4 inches).2. Two large gauze pads (at least 8 x 10 inches).3. Box adhesive bandages (band-aids).4. One package gauze roller bandage at least 2 inches wide.5. Two triangular bandages.6. Wound cleaning agent such as sealed moistened towelettes.7. Scissors.8. At least one blanket.9. Tweezers.10. Adhesive tape.11. Latex gloves.12. Resuscitation equipment such as resuscitation bag, airway, or pocket mask.13. Two elastic wraps.14. Splint.15. Directions for requesting emergency assistance.

  • Housekeeping - Construction sites can present many hazards to employees when they are performing construction-related activities. Keeping a construction site relatively clean of debris can further reduce hazards. The benefits of good housekeeping far exceed the small additional effort required to establish good housekeeping practices at a construction site.
