What are the dangers of a Construction Site?
The hazards on a construction site are various and often difficult to avoid. These risks include slipping, falling, hurting oneself using power tools, and even collisions. These dangers are caused by a list of factors. Lack of supervision and working alone are both important to be mindful of. Awareness is a difficult thing to have at all times. Although sometimes unavoidable, being alone on a construction site makes most situations immediately more hazardous. Lack of training is another reason behind a great part of injuries.
How to take appropriate precautions?
There are many ways to take the appropriate precautions to minimise risks as much as possible. Awareness is essential to remain safe. In an environment that is not prone to easy communication, it becomes key to find ways to mitigate hazards. Proper training is the very basis of safety. Employers should ensure all those working on site are up to date on their training and have adequate knowledge for the job. Moreover, a safety and evacuation plan must be ready at all times. All those present on site must know its details and have trained to ensure their knowledge.
Why Hazavoid?
Hazavoid offers fully wireless solutions: the Hazavoid Wireless Alarm System (pictured above) and the Hazavoid Wireless Alert Beacon System come with a backup battery and solar panels.
Hazavoid systems allow raising awareness for all those within a zone of concern. The WiLAS System provides users with loud tones that are customisable for their individual concerns and needs. Using a remote control, users can easily activate the devices within seconds. Carry the remote with you at all times to never be taken aback. The WiLERT System allows users to quickly and efficiently alert those around using bright flashing colourful beacons. This solution is helpful for areas of loud noise where awareness might be low. Both systems are wall and pole mountable for optimal reach.
