What's one safety feature that's worth the investment every time?
Every project has a budget, no matter how tight the budget is, what is one thing you think is always worth the money?

What safety lesson did you have to learn the hard way? Whether you accidentally forget something or are not completely aware of your surroundings. We’ve all been there. I would like to hear yours and hopefully learn from you instead of having to learn the hard way (again) lol.

When looking at a blast-resistant building, what do you wish more companies got right? Easy installation, maintenance, cost, etc?

No, your old Metallica tee from the glory days does not count as proper PPE. Neither do yoga pants or whatever “I’m just popping onto the job site for a second” outfit made sense that morning.
With just a small amount of heat applied, these images prove an important point: what you wear matters just as much as the structure protecting you. Wear the right gear. Follow the site requirements. Protect the people doing the work.
A strong safety culture should make people feel seen, supported and comfortable speaking up before things get worse, whether that’s about a jobsite hazard or something they’re carrying personally.
When we talk about protecting people, it’s easy to focus only on the physical side: PPE, procedures, hazard awareness, emergency planning, etc. But mental health is part of safety too.
In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, we're sharing this Procore article that has some practical reminders for leaders on how to better support their teams. It’s worth a read, especially for anyone working in construction, EHS or industrial safety.
