Site safety is a fundamental aspect of construction which cannot be overlooked as accidents can be life-threatening or fatal. As the construction industry continues to expand to accommodate the increasing demand, safety managers should strive to safeguard their employees at construction sites. One of the most critical best practices of ensuring construction safety is the awareness of workers. Irrespective of a worker’s experience or role in a construction site, they must be aware of all the possible safety hazards before being allowed to commence their duties.
Failing to observe safety puts everyone working on the site at risk. Safety managers should ensure that workers understand the perils at hand and know how to avoid accidents and protect themselves at all times. In addition, site safety coordinators should ensure that there is a sustained state of alertness. Knowledge of construction site safety is a must-have for every worker and safety managers should also play their role by ensuring safety measures are implemented and fully adhered to.
