Free posters
November 1st 2009 Marigold Industrial has launched a poster campaign to encourage construction firms to promote awareness of the importance of hand protection on site.
The hand protection expert has created two new posters, which construction firms can receive as ready to print artwork free of charge, and then print and place around their sites.
Rather than take a 'You Must Wear' approach to the issue, the new posters highlight how an injury on site could affect someone in their social life, and asks workers to do themselves a favour and make sure they wear gloves on site.
According to Donald Gillespie, international marketing manager for Marigold Industrial, the objective behind the new posters is to make people stop and think about how an injury could impact upon their life outside work.
"A lot of traditional signage on sites tells workers what they have to do and wear, which is often backed up by Tool Box talks and health and safety training. What we wanted to do was take a fresh approach with the posters and try to be more thought provoking as to the impact a hand injury could have to them on a personal and social front."
