Starting and finishing work in the dark is not fun. More accidents at work happen when during times of restricted visibility, which is why it is so important to wear high visibility clothing.

At SafetyLiftinGear we stock a huge range of torches designed especially with work people in mind.
If you are working in reduced light, we have a wide range of Cree and Petzl adjustable LCD head torches.

According to the HSE (Health and Safety Executive), PPE should be used “when all other measures are inadequate to control exposure”. PPE is generally advised to be used as a last resort, when risks to employee health cannot be avoided or controlled in any other way.
If your workplace is found to have risks to your health that cannot be controlled by any other means, you might need PPE. If PPE is needed, it is the responsibility of the employer to ensure PPE is provided to all employees who may be exposed to a risk to their health or safety while at work. It is also the responsibility of the employer to provide said PPE free of charge, whether it is returnable or not (Section 9 of the Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974).
We at SafetyLiftinGear, take Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) extremely seriously. Here is an example of the products that we stock in our specialist PPE section:
Winter can be a difficult time for workers who operate outdoors. Cold, damp conditions are typical in Britain at this time of year, and this can make it difficult to work efficiently while also maintaining proper health and safety standards.
