You might have seen various employees of a factory wearing a hard hat of different color!!Let's understand the meaning of this color code!
Hard hats are made from hardened plastic and, as such, they have an expiry date because plastic deteriorates over time. This means that they will need to be replaced periodically so it’s important that you check the expiry date on any hard hat that you use. A hard hat’s service life starts when it is first used and that date should be recorded on the hat in indelible pen. The maximum time for replacing a hard hat is five years, but it should be checked regularly for signs of wear or damage. The hard hat suspension should be replaced on an annual basis – they’re widely available from work gear outlets.
Hard hats come in a range of colours, all of which are significant as it allows workers on site to identify who is who and what type of work they are undertaking.
