Posters

Construction

This innovative series of 12 graphic posters was created to reach a diverse audience on a range of high risk construction safety issues, using images instead of words to identify hazards and illustrate safe work practices. Each poster conveys a specific safety message—at a glance—to workers of all ages, particularly those whose first language is not English.

These posters can be used as part of a worker orientation session, toolbox talk, or safety meeting; or they can be posted in a prominent place on your construction site as an interesting way to communicate safe work practices.
