Lockout/Tagout
LOTO failures are often blamed on individual mistakes, but modern industrial systems introduce complexity and production pressure that safety rules alone can’t solve. A stronger culture and shared responsibility may be the real key to preventing predictable harm.
Summer Hazards
Traditional heat safety programs often rely on generalized thresholds and reactive symptom reporting. New tools like PPG wearables, WBGT monitoring systems, and cooling innovations are helping safety teams take a more proactive approach.
Ladder Safety
Thousands of ladder-related injuries happen every year, often because the wrong ladder is used. Understanding ladder types, height requirements, duty ratings, and materials can reduce fall risk and improve safety at elevation.
OSHA’s updated guidance highlights the importance of hazard assessments when selecting head protection. Here are five key steps to help employers choose the right helmet type, electrical class, and accessories for their worksite risks.
Outdated assumptions about training, technology, and costs continue to expose construction crews to unnecessary risk. Rethinking these common safety myths can strengthen protection, improve efficiency, and support long-term business performance.
From small errors to human factors like complacency and distraction, hand injuries persist across industries. Addressing habits, awareness, and leadership may be the key to protecting workers both on and off the job.
From heat stress and dehydration to cold exposure and storm-related hazards, shifting weather patterns are increasing construction safety risks. Here’s how supervisors can plan and protect crews every season.
Why skylights and roof openings continue to cause serious injuries during routine work.
Electrical safety training shouldn’t be a checkbox exercise. These five strategies can help safety leaders improve engagement, reinforce safe behaviors, and strengthen compliance across different job roles.
New advances in flame-resistant apparel are balancing protection, mobility, and heat stress prevention.
