Winter can be a difficult time for workers who operate outdoors. The cold and damp conditions associated with this time of year can make it difficult to carry out work efficiently, while also maintaining proper health and safety standards. At SafetyLiftinGear we are committed to providing products that contribute to a safe and comfortable working environment, which is why we stock a range of items that cater specifically to work carried out in colder conditions.
Below are three essential items for carrying out work in cold and damp conditions:
Jacket Safety Harness
This windproof and water resistant jacket includes an integrated safety harness, which makes it ideal for outdoor work completed at height. It has both front and rear 'D' ring attachment points, making it highly functional and easy to use. The harness can also be removed in order to use the jacket alone, or to be inspected as part of health and safety protocol.
N-Ferno 6815 Stretch Cap - Full Face
This full-face stretch cap by ERGODYNE is a great form of winter insulation. With this item you can keep the sensitive skin on your face protected from frost and wind, without restricting your vision. It may also come in handy for keeping you healthy when the annual winter cold is being passed around the workplace!
HI Viz Yellow Bomber Jacket
Another difficulty posed by winter is poor visibility, caused by inclement weather and restricted daylight hours. Our Hi Viz Bomber Jacket is designed to ensure the safety of outdoor workers during unlit hours, while preserving their warmth and comfort at the same time. This jacket comes in 300D polyester coated fabric and has a concealed hood, making it ideal for use in cold, windy and damp weather. It also has fleece faced quilt lining and elasticated adjustable cuffs for maximum comfort. Choose from M, L or XL.
