HEAD PROTECTION
There are industrial workplaces where the risks posed by head injuries are so overwhelming that the common industrial safety helmets compliant are not sufficient to provide a satisfactory degree of protection. For instance, in industry sectors such as mining and construction. In such cases, high-performance industrial safety helmet should be provided to the employees that also comprise of a shell and a headband with good shock absorption properties and protection against lateral shock. They should also consist of protective padding that absorbs the energy from the impact and therefore reduces the forces transmitted onto the user’s head. This padding is usually made up of foams with elements such as polyurethane.
Oftentimes safety helmet comes in various colours that signify different roles to the wearers on construction sites. These colour designations vary from company to company. Usually, a number of companies, employees of the same company may wear the same colour hat when they are a part of large projects. Mostly, supervisors are not familiar with all workers on a construction site. Thus, stickers, labels and markers are used to mark safety helmet so that important information can be shared and transmitted without any delays and glitches. As a result, stickers with company logos are very commonplace in construction sites.
