| Gambling with your safety on a job site is like playing the lottery—the more you play, the better the odds that you’ll hit the big one. But unlike the lottery, safety’s stakes are much higher. This program provides a concise guide to basic construction safety concerns and practices. Topics include:
• Personal protective equipment, including hardhats, protective glasses and goggles, clothing, and boots
• Tool safety rules and tips
• Electrical safety practices, including use of ground-fault circuit interruptors (GFCIs)
• Hazard communication, such as material safety data sheets (MSDS)
• Ladder and scaffold safety
A helpful summary of the main points concludes the program.
