There's a whole ocean of oil down there... this is what can happen if it catches fire.
A lot can go wrong drilling for crude oil, and it's difficult to stop a fire. Safety procedures and policies like proper equipment, inspections, and pressure control can help a derrick from going up in flames.
Like asbestos, lead is a likely hazard when working on old buildings. One of the best ways to keep it top of mind is with a lead safety toolbox talk.

When you see the fire pinwheel go, it's time to GTFO!
Indoor manufacturing and smelting jobs can be just as dangerous as a construction site. Regardless of your discipline, it's always a good idea to reduce fire hazards by calling out potential issues when you see them.
Spring and warmer temperatures are here, and with them come a new set of high-priority safety topics! This month we're talking about:
— Driving awareness on and off the job site
— Workers' Memorial Day
— Silica dust exposure
— Heat illness prevention
— And more!
You get better safety engagement without the frontline getting mad at YOU for being a safety cop.
And if the safety cone misses something? Well, time travel might always be an option.
Anyways, happy April Fools!

Hyperscale construction projects may see as many as 200 PTPs and JSAs completed before lunch. So where does all that data go? If you're like most GCs, that data is likely filed away, never to be seen.
On Wednesday, we saw a crane flipping due to a heavy load. Let's check out a better example — lifting a vending machine out of a high-rise construction site because the doors were too small.
