Prevention is better than regret. We all know this, but it’s often forgotten when focusing on the tasks at hand. For this reason, proper site setup is vital.

This includes setting up visual warnings in the form of extendable barriers , barricade tape and so on, to create safe movement or working corridors for people to safely navigate their way around the workers.
