Ten Must-Know Safety Tips for Skilled Trade Workers

  1. Wear PPE, or personal protective equipment, to minimize serious worksite injury.
  1. Observe training procedures. Workers should never operate machinery without proper training.
  2. Follow all SOPs, or standard operating procedures. Even if a process seems redundant, it’s standardized for a reason.
  3. Know your surroundings. Survey your construction site daily, check the weather, and don’t become complacent — always watch your step.
  4. Communicate constantly. Construction teams must plan together, talk through processes together, and meet often to confirm that projects are proceeding as planned.
  5. Prioritize mental and physical health. It’s hard to be safe when stressed and tired. Make sure everyone on site takes regular breaks.
  6. Clean up your site. On a regular basis, get rid of site debris, organize your tools, and make sure the entire area is clear and navigable.
  7. Protect your tools. When not in use, tools and machinery should be put away (or locked away).
  8. Respect your tools, too. After use, take time to clean machinery, lubricate tools, or perform any maintenance required.
  9. Encourage questions. If you (or any team member) are confused or something on site seems odd, speak up. Ask about it. And create an environment where all workers on your site feel comfortable asking questions, too.
