The importance of wearing gloves in the construction industry

The construction industry involves significant risks in almost all of its processes. In fact, it is one of the areas with the highest number of occupational accidents as a result of its high level of danger. Therefore, it is always advisable to adopt the appropriate means to avoid an abrupt halt to projects and a loss of human capital.

First of all, the risk of cutting is present at all times. Handling sharp or edged tools is a frequent procedure that can be harmful. The use of construction gloves is therefore indispensable, especially when working with glass, nails or metals.

With regard to the risk of vibrations, it is essential to minimize the likelihood of vibrations. The anti-vibration gloves can absorb and distribute them through the fabric. This prevents direct impact on the worker's fingers, which could cause injury or trauma in the worst case scenario.

To ensure full protection of employees, the means must be manufactured by specialists with extensive experience. Ansell meets this requirement and uses top quality materials.
