🎃 Spooky Safety: Don’t Let Workplace Hazards Haunt You!

---

It’s that time of year when ghosts, ghouls, and goblins come out to play… but so do workplace hazards if you’re not careful! Halloween is the perfect reminder that lurking dangers—like slips, falls, and equipment mishaps—can be more terrifying than any costume. Let’s make sure safety isn’t scared off this spooky season.

👷 Beware the Invisible Hazards

Not all dangers wear a mask. In construction, industrial, and oil & gas settings, the “invisible” hazards can include:

• Loose scaffolding or rigging

• Chemical spills or gas leaks

• Unsecured tools at height

• Improper PPE (Personal Protective Equipment)Even a small oversight can lead to big scares. Always do your pre-shift checks and never underestimate what you can’t see.
