INDUSTRY SAFETY

Whether you maintain roads, install sewer lines or remove snow, you work for very important people - everyone. Well-built and maintained infrastructure improves public safety, but these do not come without risk. Roadwork often puts public works employees in traffic with work zone hazards; trenching presents confined spaces hazards; and workers are exposed to the harshest weather conditions throughout the year. Public works employees find themselves on a wide variety of jobsites with industry specific hazards.

Customer Safety Services understands these risks and has created free safety videos to download, safety checklists and toolbox talks, as well as online training to help foster a culture of safety awareness on the job. For these resources and safety excerpts from your machine's Operation and Maintenance Manual (OMM), bookmark SAFETY.CAT.COMTM and visit us often.
