Managing
Safety on Multi-Employer
Work Sites
On
December 13th The
American Society of
Safety Professionals
reported that
"construction sites
are busy places. On
any given day, you’ll
find laborers,
carpenters,
electricians,
plumbers, pipefitters,
iron workers and
others performing
tasks across a
potentially vast work
site. With so many
workers, often from
different employers,
performing potentially
hazardous tasks, how
can you ensure
everyone is operating
safely and understands
their responsibilities
to identify and
mitigate those
hazards?...ANSI/ASSP
A10.33-2020 voluntary
consensus standard
sets safety and health
program requirements
for multi-employer
projects, including
establishing roles and
responsibilities for
all involved, and
confirming that each
team member knows how
to address hazards
they may encounter".
