#- there is the risk of falling objects, workers must also correctly wear safety helmets to avoid head injury.On almost all construction sites there are situations where head injuries could happen. #-The work should be organised to minimise this risk, for example: preventing objects falling by using scaffolds with toe boards. But if even after doing this, risks of head injury will normally still remain and you should ensure all workers are provided with, and wear, suitable head protection.
