Lawn Care Business safety discussion. Protective equipment.

17 Aug


www.StartALawnCareBusiness.com Hi, this is Keith with www.StartALawnCareBusiness.com I am overlooking the Tennessee River just outside of beautiful Chattanooga, TN. Today, I am going to discuss a few items you need to operate your lawn care business safely. Footwear You may be tempted to wear a rough pair of sneakers to mow the grass. Dont do that. I recommend a sturdy pair of work boots. You dont necessarily need a steel toe. Some people prefer it. Some people dont. I like a work boot with a high profile and a solid sole. It is vital to keep your feet healthy and protected from rocks and other objects which may strike your foot as you are working. Work socks: A solid pair of work socks. I like to wear hiking socks which wick moisture away from your feet and are comfortable to wear and walk in for long periods of time. Pants: I like to wear shorts when I am giving estimates and doing other non-work activities. They are cool and look professional during the summer. When you are actually working, nothing beats a pair of long work pants. Heavy material protects you from being pelted with rocks from weedeaters and mowers. If you are not going to wear long work pants, at least get a pair of shin guards to protect your legs from rocks and other flying debris. Shirts: Brightly colored shirts give a professional appearance. A short sleeved shirt is great for work but when the sun is shining sometimes you need a long sleeved shirt. Light colored, long-sleeved athletic jerseys keep

    Osha doesn’t approve anything….lol. When looking at equipment look at an ANSI rating. There is a lot of crap out there that says it is osha approved and they do this because their product isn’t rated and they don’t want to spend the money to get it approved by a reliable source….This goes for any type of ppe such as earplugs or eyewear. Just a thought.
