The Choice is Yours - Reflective Clothing
DVD524 - 2005
Larger equipment is being used in the mining industry and visibility from the operator's compartment is not always good. Numerous accidents have occurred where a miner was struck by or run over by underground mobile equipment. Statements by some of the equipment operators interviewed include: "I never saw him/her," I didn't know where they were," and "By the time I saw him/her, I could not stop."Wearing reflective clothing will make miners more visible and allow them to be seen. You must dress for work every day, so why not use reflective clothing? It takes no extra effort and there is no excuse not to do it -- THE CHOICE IS YOURS!
