['Heavy Equipment and Vehicles']
Construction jobsites are dangerous places. When heavy equipment is operating, jobsites become even more dangerous.
Safe operation of heavy equipment involves seeing the big picture. You must:
- Have safe equipment;
- Have the right personal stuff — proper training and an attitude toward safety; and
- Be aware of jobsite activities, including the terrain, other equipment, fellow workers, overhead lines, and many more observations.
