Safety is always our top priority, and having a designated Fire Watch ensures quick response to potential hazards, especially during hot work operations like welding or grinding. Eddie shares the importance of staying vigilant, being prepared with fire extinguishers, and knowing how to handle any emergency before it escalates. Your actions can make all the difference in keeping everyone safe. #ConstructionSafety #StayPrepared #SafetySaturday #SafeByChoice #wlfrench #WEMOVEBOSTON

In this week’s Safety Saturday rerun with Amy, we’re revisiting an important topic: understanding the difference between caution tape and danger tape on a job site. 🟡 Caution Tape is a visual alert to proceed carefully. It’s used in areas with lower risk, like tripping hazards or work zones where it's safe to pass with awareness. 🔴 Danger Tape, on the other hand, means STOP. It marks high-risk zones where entry is restricted to authorized personnel only, usually due to serious hazards like electrical work or heavy machinery in operation. Knowing when to take caution and when to avoid entirely can save lives. Stay safe, stay aware, and let’s keep safety a top priority! #ConstructionSafety #StayPrepared #SafetySaturday #SafeByChoice #wlfrench #WEMOVEBOSTON
