👨🚒 Fire safety during any #construction project is just as important as #firesafety after construction is complete. Precautions during new construction, repair, and #retrofit projects must be taken seriously.
🔥 At various stages of construction, materials can be exposed to ignition sources like open flames from welding and cutting torches. It is very important that all construction trades follow appropriate safety precautions, regulations, and site safety protocols when on job sites.
Check out our Construction Site Safety Guide for more on this important topic. modernbuildingalliance.us/wp…
