For Concrete Paving Safety, compare your operation to these important safety measures:

Conduct a pre-job study to plan proper equipment arrangement, operation sequence, and traffic patterns as needed.

Pre-Plan vehicle backing lanes. Mark them and keep them clear of equipment, material and people.

Assign a capable signal person to direct trucks backing up to the skip and control people in the area. This is a full time job. Keep the signal person free of other duties and stationed in a clearly defined area.

Instruct truck drivers to back up only when signaled to do so.

Equip the paver with an audible horn for signaling and emergency use.

Guard all exposed gears, chains, rolls, shafts and pinch points.

Put side rails around the mixer skip to keep people from walking under it when it is being lowered.

Inspect ropes, walkways, blocks and sheaves daily before beginning work.

Stop machinery before repairing it. Lower skips to the ground or block and fasten them. Be careful during fueling. Eliminate ignition sources and keep from spilling fuel.
