Protective equipment

  • Helmet and safety shoes for everyone on site.
  • Gloves for steel, concrete and chemical work; eye protection for cutting and grinding.
  • Full-body harness tied to a secure point for any work at height.

Work at height and openings

  • Stable scaffolding with proper planks and guard rails.
  • Cover or barricade slab openings, lift shafts and staircase edges.
  • No work on roofs or edges in heavy rain or strong wind.

Electricity and machines

  • Temporary connections through a proper distribution board with earth leakage protection.
  • No loose or joined wires lying in water.
  • Only trained people operate mixers, cutters and lifting equipment.

Excavation

Deep trenches need support or a safe slope, a barricade around the edge, and spoil kept back from the edge.

Care for workers

  • Clean drinking water, shade and a place to rest.
  • A first-aid kit on site and the nearest hospital's address and phone number displayed.
  • Fair hours and payment on the agreed day.

Frequently asked questions

Who is responsible for safety equipment on a construction site?

Agree it in writing before work starts. Usually the contractor or labour supplier provides protective equipment for their workers, and the owner makes sure the site itself (openings, electricity, access) is safe.
