Storm Safety and Construction Alert!

August 21, 2023 - Written by: Anna Ricciardi

This summer we have experienced some severe storms. As we continue through the stormy season, we wanted to share some important tips regarding construction safety during inclement weather. We’re here to ensure everyone stays informed and protected. 🛠️💪
1. Safety First: When a storm is on the horizon, it’s crucial to prioritize safety. Construction sites should be secured properly to prevent any potential hazards. Materials, tools, and equipment should be safely stored to avoid becoming projectiles during high winds.
2. Temporary Halts: Depending on the severity of the storm, construction activities may need to be temporarily halted. Safety is paramount, so please be patient and understanding if you notice construction projects pausing during adverse weather conditions.
3. Stay Informed: Keep an eye on local weather forecasts and storm warnings. By staying informed, you can make informed decisions about construction projects and be prepared for any necessary adjustments to timelines.
4. Secure Scaffolding and Structures: If your project involves scaffolding or temporary structures, make sure they are properly secured and reinforced to withstand strong winds and heavy rain.
5. Post-Storm Inspections: After the storm passes, it’s essential to conduct thorough inspections of construction sites. Look for any damage, potential hazards, or compromised structures before resuming work.
Remember, safety is a collective effort, and we’re in this together. Let’s ensure our construction projects prioritize the well-being of our community members and workers.
Stay safe, stay informed, and let’s weather the storm responsibly! ⛈️🏢
