When should members of a tower work team wear a hard hat and safety glasses?

Only during the installation of antennas
When climbing the tower
At all times when any work is being done on the tower
Only during adverse weather conditions

The correct answer is: At all times when any work is being done on the tower

Wearing a hard hat and safety glasses at all times while working on a tower is crucial for ensuring the safety of team members. This practice is important because tower work poses various hazards, including the risk of falling objects, which can cause serious injury or even fatalities. Hard hats are designed to protect the head from impacts and falling materials, while safety glasses are essential for safeguarding the eyes from debris, dust, and other potential hazards present in the work environment. By following this guideline, work teams can minimize their risk of injury and enhance overall safety while performing tasks related to tower maintenance, installation, or any other operation. Adhering to safety regulations not only protects individual workers but also promotes a culture of safety within the entire team, establishing habits that help prevent accidents.
