Even if they look fine, hard hats should be replaced every 5 years, and liners every 12 months. Whether it’s a cap, full brim, or vented hard hat, check the inside of the brim for the expiration date. When your hard hat hits its expiration date, it’s time for a new one. If your hard hat is expired, speak with your supervisor and get the equipment you need. #SafetyFirst #WeAreQuanta

Good morning! Here's your Monday morning reminder that safety is a choice... and this was the wrong choice. This driver was cited for multiple infractions, including being overlength, no permit, no load securement, and log book violations. If you've got someone saying they'll do it cheaper, you have the right to question how so you don't wind up on the wrong end of a deposition. Y'all have a great day! #outofservice #safetyfirst #youredoingitwrong

Today i explain 12 steps cleaning sequence

Man fatally crushed by load that weighed 3,200 pounds: Awkward item slipped off forks of telehandler, landed on him 🏗 Incident summary: A crew member foolishly positioned himself in the fall zone underneath a raised load, and was subsequently fatally crushed by it. ⚕ What happened: A worker was operating a telehandler in order to move an awkward load a distance of about four feet. He’d been trained to drive forklifts, but he’d received no training on the specific telehandler being used for the task. The load was awkwardly shaped and weighed about 3,200 pounds. Because of the unusual shape of the load, the operator had trouble extending the telehandler’s forks into it. However, the operator was eventually able to get the forks into the awkward load. Meanwhile, another staff member had crouched next to the load to help guide it into position. The operator raised the load about two feet off the ground and began to reposition the telehandler. Suddenly, the load slipped off the forks and landed on the head of the staffer who’d crouched to help position it. Then the heavy weight shifted and crushed his torso. Coworkers quickly pushed the load off the victim, and emergency responders were called. But the worker was declared dead at the scene due to severe blunt force injuries to his torso. 🏥 Findings: Investigators said the deadly incident could’ve been prevented if the employer had adhered to two basic safety practices. First, the telehandler operator should’ve been trained to use the specific type of machine involved in the incident. His generic forklift training was of little value in this situation. Second, the victim should’ve been warned to stay out of the fall zone underneath the raised load.  👨💻 (From the June 24, 2024, issue of Safety Alert for Supervisors.

Always verify that all safety information labels are fully attached and are legible. Labels which are not fully attached, missing, or not legible can lead to misuse of the ladder, resulting in serious injury or death. Understanding of the ladder duty rating and ensuring duty rating is clearly visible on the ladder will avoid issues caused by overloading the ladder. #Featherlite
