AVOID BUMPS AND SCRAPES WITH BUMP CAPS

Getting workers to wear head protection can be tough, especially in areas where hard hats are not required. It’s estimated that a third of impact injuries to the head are suffered by workers who bumped into stationary objects while not wearing any head protection.
