Year after year, the construction industry sees the most workplace accidents in the UK. A building site is inherently hazardous, with employees using powerful equipment and tools, working at a height and lifting heavy materials. There’s also a whole array of potential slip and trip hazards, including pipework, loose cabling and building materials. Winter introduces cold, icy, wet conditions and reduced daylight hours into the mix, increasing the potential for workplace accidents.
At this time of year, construction sites face heightened challenges in maintaining safety standards. To ensure everyone goes home safe and sound, construction companies must be well-versed in the relevant winter safety regulations and implement them effectively. Thorneycroft can play a crucial role in ensuring compliance and protecting workers’ rights.
