ambulance of the nearest hospital.
Personal Protective Equipment: Safety boots, safety belts, gloves and hard hats are
mandatory on site. High visibility vests for all operatives on the ground during crane /
vehicle operations.
Plant & Equipment: Mobile crane for the installation of trusses, roof ladder, fixed
scaffold for access. Roof tile conveyor.

FIRST AID
Our every construction has a First Aid box. It is there for you and your fellow employees
to use. Secure prompt medical attention for any injured employee.
TRAINING
Employees who respond to first aid incidents will do the following before
treating the patient.
1. Incident Not Involving Spurting Blood.
2. Before treating first aid cases when spurting blood does not exist but there is an
open wound, put on gloves, mask and eye protection.
Treat the patient using supplies from the first aid box. Once the patient is treated,
place all materials in the infectious waste bag.
3.Incident Involving Spurting Blood.
Place a bandage over the wound. Put on control gown, gloves, booties, and mask with
splash guard.
Once this has been accomplished, finish treating the patient then remove the
protective equipment and put in the infectious waste bag along with other materials that
was used to treat the patient.
