Site audit reveals critical PPE non-compliance and ladder safety hazards during electrical conduit installation involving three workers.
Three workers are engaged in the installation of electrical conduits using multiple ladders and saws. The scene indicates active production work where materials are being cut and positioned. While some safety gear is present, there is a significant discrepancy between the number of workers and the available personal protective equipment, specifically regarding head and torso protection, creating a high-risk environment for head injuries and low visibility.
