There have been many tragic work accidents but some workers are still indifferent, especially many people work at heights without protective gear which is very dangerous.

In the hot weather, a painter worked on the roof of a 6-storey building on Thanh Nien Street (Hai Duong City) without any safety measures. The above situation is very likely to cause an accident, especially in hot weather, when workers working outdoors are prone to fatigue and dizziness.

This is also a fairly common situation at many civil construction sites in Hai Duong. Many workers do not wear protective clothing or safety belts as required when working.

According to Circular No. 25/2022/TT-BLDTBXH regulating the provision of personal protective equipment in labor, wall painters and wall scrapers need to be equipped with general protective clothing, industrial safety helmets, anti-dust or anti-mechanical injury glasses, canvas gloves, low-cut canvas shoes, high fall protection safety belts, dust masks, cotton towels, and soap.
