To ensure your safety when assigned to a new jobsite, you should determine ___ on this site.

• A. if special hazards exist
• B. what PPE is required
• C. if the general contractor has special safety requirements
• D. all of these

Answer: (D)

When you’re sent to a new jobsite, you want a complete safety picture from the start. Identify any special hazards on the site, determine the PPE you’ll need to protect against those hazards, and check if the general contractor has any specific safety requirements or rules. This all-inclusive check ensures you’re prepared for the site conditions, have the right protection, and follow the contractor’s safety expectations. Focusing on just one aspect could miss a hazardous condition, or a required piece of equipment, or a unique site rule, leaving you exposed.
