Construction Hard Hat Helmet-1Piece

Safety helmet colours on Build UK members' sites should adhere to the following colour scheme on all new (and existing, where practicable) sites:

• White - for site managers, competent operatives and vehicle marshalls (distinguished by the wearing of a different coloured high-visibility vest).
• Black - for site supervisors.
• Orange - for slingers and signallers.
• Blue - for all other site visitors.

There are a range of different approaches to safety helmet colours with sites and contractors having their own, often conflicting, approaches documented in their PPE standards. These inconsistencies are confusing and potentially dangerous. The new standard aims to make site visitors and other non-team members easily identifiable and ensure competencies.
