 PEDESTRIAN SAFETY DURING FOG

Pedestrians are at high risk during fog due to low visibility:

✅ Wear high-visibility or reflective clothing

✅ Use designated walkways and crossings

✅ Avoid walking close to moving vehicles or machinery

✅ Make eye contact with drivers before crossing

✅ Carry a torch or light if visibility is very low

✅ Follow site rules and safety signage strictly

🚫 Avoid sudden crossing of roads or work areas

🚫 Do not assume drivers can see you clearly

 SITE & WORKPLACE CONTROL MEASURES

Increase warning signage and reflective barriers

Use traffic marshals or flagmen where required

Restrict vehicle movement if visibility is critically low

Conduct toolbox talks on fog-related risks

Ensure all vehicles and equipment lights are functional

Adjust work schedules if necessary

KEY HSE MESSAGE

Fog reduces visibility — but safe behavior reduces risk.

Slow down, stay visible, stay alert, and follow HSE procedures.

Safety is everyone’s responsibility.
