Proud to be Part of Our Team
|
The following photo links were sent to me by the manager where I work, exemplifying the newly implemented safety gear and equipment for the laborers. They show off a number of innovative efforts by associations, labor groups, and contractors, doing just what the experts recommend: identifying hazards and developing focused solutions that prevent injuries, and boost the desirability of construction employment. It fills me with confidence to know that our employer shows genuine concern for the physical safety of his company workers.
Truly our society is moving forward in the field of safety innovation.
Sometimes the delivery drivers park a little far from the loading dock and our guys have had to stretch precariously across the divide. This piece of equipment is designed to bridge the gap without endangering the men to a fall.
In response to a recent accident involving a fallen garage door, several safety helmets were purchased to protect the warehouse workers.
Rather than the clumsy, old-fashioned goggles widely in use at this time, our workers have the advantage of full face protection when sawing through the hoses with a metal helix.
One piece of safety gear that we considered, but unfortunately have no use for, is the welding mask. I was personally impressed with the use of fire resistant material, combined with the extra eye protection.
Doesn’t it make you proud of where you work? :) |

| The ShugaBowl |
| Sounds like some kind of sports thing, but in reality, the ShugaBowl is just a little hideaway for me, Sugarcube herself, to let loose my thoughts and occasional creativeness. |
