Safety equipment for women

There are a lot of women that work in the construction industry and do the same jobs that men do. They often need to wear safety equipment such as harnesses but they may find that they do not seem to fit them as well as they hoped.

Harnesses for example are not designed to fit a women’s body shape and therefore can be quite uncomfortable to wear. Rather than having to manage and spending long periods of time feeling uncomfortable, why not invest in a harness that has been specifically made for women. These harnesses have been adapted to fit the contours of a women’s body whilst still providing a high level of protection.

If you worn on a construction site or in a job where you need to wear a safety harness then you should ask if they are able to provide you with a women’s one. These have not been around for that long so it may be that your employer has not heard of them. Maybe do some research first to find out a few examples that you could show to them and price comparisons. You may even decide that you are going to instead provide your own, just check first that it is ok for you to use your own safety equipment.
