  Safety clothing keep workers warm and safety

  A major cold wave hit the country Chaunois recent days. With often around 0ºC thermometer in recent days and the first freezing rain, the outdoor work is hard and not safety. Workers need to wear safety vest to keep warm and safety. “It’s not always easy, but we have the equipment to protect them," says Virginie, 39, a letter carrier in La Fere. Filled jacket, waterproof trousers, gloves, neck, ear protection, protective footwear, thermos, crampons, plus helmet and yellow safety vest is part of "paraphernalia" for 3 hours 30 minutes to 4 hours to pass out. “Like an onion, the layers are multiplied," says Christelle, 44 years old, his colleague. Still, the cold feeling may be there and forties advocates suddenly tights under trousers. To warm up, the five cyclists and agent walk from La Fere can take breaks to customers. To organize the fight against the cold of winter, the weather map is on the Post Office. “The goal is to continue the activity by protecting our personal," says Françoise Fasquel, responsible communication platform preparation and delivery of mail to Saint-Quentin. He added: “We check that recently arrived young people do not go in sneakers and everyone is well equipped, including studs," continues the ruling. Cyclist, “when there is frost, ice, they do not come out in principle and shifts the tour in time. There may be training in pairs by car. " "To warm up, we will look for the current bags" The general rule remains: “As soon as the mail arrives in the center is that it can come out.” To clear the streets, squares or passages to public places, work up to the communities technical services. At Chauny, activity has increased since December 29. Five mornings, agents had to sand “before people will go to work," said Patrick Pezet, responsible road. Depending on weather conditions expected on the eve of the hotlines are established with the three drivers and four officers on foot. If necessary, the next day, intervention teams and trucks is launched after an inspection by the duty manager (5 hours). Addition to the facilities of the City, “everyone has his technique to fight against the cold," suggests Nicolas driver. “I have always worked out. Then after a moment, I feel less cold, "he continues. However, if the poor conditions persist, it is difficult to fight. In the winter of 2010, “even with the heater at the bottom, the windscreen froze, remembers the agent. And a moment the trucks more advanced. It took off and pushes. " Work out, Christophe and Teddy also knows what it is. "Skids" for respectively thirteen and sixteen, they are accustomed to the vagaries of weather. “It is not always obvious. To warm up, running the reflective material bags we will look, "they smile. Sometimes they also enjoy the hospitality of "clients": " There are nice people who pay us coffee ," say the two colleagues who, despite the cold, rain, sleet or conversely hot weather, take pleasure in this profession not always well considered. “We like our job," they confide.

  Pylons fitters in safety clothing at work

  On the pylons fitters in safety clothing are traveling. What the men engaged in this dangerous profession connects. Free lineman's the Occupation of young men who are doing the Unterallgäu that, before we warn all children rightly resistant: They will soar on high-voltage pylons. "It's not so wild," appeased Andreas. "This looks more dangerous than it is." All five assemblers that the LEW masts point 79 to 34 up towards retrofitted with an assurance riser system are Austrians and for years experienced and passionate recreational climbers. "People from Carinthia and East Tyrol are for several years leader in this industry," says Foreman Alban. But while Andreas is only five years there and thus an old hand, are two of his colleagues only since October this professional activity and are quasi yet learned. "However, one can never really in this profession," quips Müller, “There is always something new" Certain conditions must not meet: "But of course you should be afraid of heights and crush resistant. However, it is not a teaching, so we have, for example, carpenters, electricians or bricklayers doing. Especially important is common sense, "says the Carinthian. The average age of the group is around 24 years; it is precisely what young people think it is good to have an unusual work. Andreas Müller knows anyone over 40 who exercise this profession. He and his colleagues get hazard and height allowance "and to get neat rum in the world." Current is only partially turned off Nevertheless, the whole thing is no picnic: If the five climbing on the 45 to 50 meter high masts, only part of the high-voltage lines is not live.

"The right weather does not exist: In the summer, it's hot, in the winter cold and wet in the fall, does not matter," says the 25-year-old Carinthian, is actually a skilled carpenter.

Seniors, present at the meeting, they could see in a practical way, how it looks. The police arranged for their passage cop, realizing that after dark, as well as in case of bad weather, which reduces visibility on the road, the driver sees the pedestrian without glare at the last minute.

  Safety vest and reflective tape ensure students' safety

  For this school year, parents should incorporate a host of parameters to well equip their offspring. And the safety vest is an essential element. Furthermore the weight distribution of books and the back support in the child, the issue of visibility on the way to school is also crucial. In Germany, the legislator has long taken the lead. A law requires manufacturers to equip the back and sides schoolbags at least 10% of reflective material. Moreover, the bag must comprise at least 20% of fluorescent materials. "Every year, road safety advocates buying retro reflective tape to paste on school bags," explains the director of road safety, Isabelle. "We also run a campaign with small snowmen to hang bag back of reflective fabric or elsewhere. They are sold to municipalities which then distribute to their students, "she says. The presence of reflective surfaces on the satchel or clothing can identify a silhouette to 150 meters in the dark. A big difference because the car lights will allow seeing a figure at 30 meters.
