Emergency Medical Information Safety Sticker
Keep crucial emergency medical information within reach on the jobsite with GBC's new Emergency Medical Information Safety Sticker.

This is a sticker that is applied to a worker's hard hat.  The reverse side has all the pertinent information in case of accident or emergency. The outside has an easily recognizable "red cross" to alert EMTs or paramedics. Personal information is hidden when the sticker is applied to the hard hat. During an emergency, just peel the sticker to reveal the emergency medical information.

These labels are ideal for hard hats and wallets. Don't waste valuable time looking for medical information in paper files in the jobsite trailer. Now every one of your workers can carry emergency information with them wherever they go.  Click here for an order form.

NEW!! What Every Supervisor Must Know About OSHA – Construction
We have found a great new resource book for construction supervisors that covers the OSHA 1926 Standards in “plain English.” This new book covers all the standards and highlights the important sections of each standard, but is written in a narrative style that is much easier to read and understand than the standards themselves. The book also includes quizzes and interpretation letters to help further your understanding. This book can be a great resource even for the most experienced supervisor.  Click here for an order form.
