Health & Safety information

What items are recommended by HSE in a tree surgeon first aid kit?

Accidents in arboriculture and forestry are all too common, claiming thousands of lives and limbs globally each year. In these critical moments, every second counts. Having the right bleed control kit readily available can be the difference between life and death.

That's why Native ARB, refuse to compromise on first aid. The HSE-compliant tree surgeon first aid kits are built specifically for the demanding environments arborists face. They're tough, reliable, and packed with life-saving tools, all without an inflated price tag. Because we believe true professionals deserve nothing less.

Don't leave your safety to chance. Equip yourself with a Native ARB bleed control kit and be ready to respond when it matters most.

Why do you need a tree cutting sign ?
While tree cutting signs might not be the most essential piece of equipment for tree surgeons, they do play a crucial role in safety and communication, making them a valuable tool. Here's why:    Public awareness: Tree cutting signs effectively warn people in the vicinity of the work area about potential hazards like falling branches or debris. This helps prevent bystanders from entering the danger zone and protects them from accidental injuries.    Traffic control: If the tree work is near roads or public areas, signs are essential for directing traffic and preventing accidents. They can signal drivers to slow down, detour, or be extra cautious.    Worker visibility: Signs can be used to mark specific hazards within the work area, such as downed branches or slippery surfaces, alerting workers to potential dangers and promoting safe work practices.

Correx Safety Signs for Tree Surgeons: Essential for Workplace Safety
Tree surgeons work in a dynamic and inherently risky environment. Falling branches, chainsaw accidents, and slips on uneven terrain are just a few of the hazards they face daily. To mitigate these risks and ensure a safe work environment, Correx Safety Signs are crucial tools for tree surgeons.
What are Correx Safety Signs?
Correx signs are lightweight, fluted polypropylene boards commonly used for temporary signage. They are affordable, waterproof, and easy to install, making them ideal for outdoor use in tree surgery settings.
Benefits of Using Correx Safety Signs:
Raise awareness: Clearly communicate potential hazards like falling branches, tripping hazards, and restricted areas, alerting both workers and the public.
Promote safe work practices: Remind workers of essential safety procedures, such as wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) and maintaining safe working distances.
Comply with regulations: Help tree surgery businesses comply with health and safety regulations, potentially reducing the risk of fines and legal repercussions.
Reduce accidents: By effectively communicating hazards and promoting safe practices, Correx signs can significantly reduce the risk of accidents and injuries on the job site.
