Safe Work Practices

  • Do not work at elevations above four feet without fall protection.
  • Be sure that any electrically-powered tools are plugged into an outlet or extension cord that is equipped with GFCI protection.
  • Do not use tools and electrical cords where the cord insulation is not intact or where the ground pin has been removed from the plug.
  • Workers should never work or take breaks within the fall radius of newly set precast concrete until permanently secured in place.
  • No employee can work under concrete buckers while being raised or lowered into position.
