🦺 Go Orange for the people behind the cones 🦺

This National Work Zone Awareness Week, we’re reminded that road workers are more than just the individuals you pass by on your commute—they’re parents, siblings, friends, and neighbors.

Every sign, cone, and flagger represents someone who deserves to make it home safely at the end of the day.

Slow down. Stay alert. Put your phone away.

Because in a work zone, it’s not just about traffic—it’s about people.

Struck-by injuries are a leading cause of death and, since 1992, the leading cause of nonfatal injuries in the construction industry. The national stand down encourages employers and workers to pause voluntarily during the workday for safety demonstrations, training in hazard recognition and fall prevention, and talks about hazards, protective methods, and the company’s safety policies, goals and expectations. Resources to conduct your own stand down can be found at CPWR.com/research/work-zone-safety.
