Slow Down for Safe Plant Repairs this Month

For the toolbox tips this December, plant repairs will take center stage, but your team at AsphaltPro would like to offer a simpler message this week. Many companies and crews might be taking the end of this month off to spend time with family. Travel is probably on everyone’s list. If you have some last-minute tasks to finish up around the plant before taking some well-deserved vacation time, make sure safety stays top of mind.

Your quick tip this week concerns safety.

If you notice yourself or one of your crew members in a rush to complete a repair and then jet off to a family function, please take the time to slow down and double-check safety protocol. Everyone’s in a hurry this time of year. It’s as if the holiday hustle has seeped into all aspects of life. Please make sure you include a reminder of lock-out/tag-out/block-out procedures in the morning tailgate talk or safety huddle before work begins. Make this a happy holiday season with everyone getting home safely to loved ones and friends.
