SAFETY

'Inherently safe' masonry products reduce injuries and increase profits.

THE MASONRY TRADE, PARTICULARLY FOR BLOCK MASONS, IS PHYSICALLY DEMANDING AND OFTEN DANGEROUS. Workplace injuries take a toll on workers, timelines and overall profitability. New product innovation and the adoption of engineered products and processes relieve many physical demands of the trade, making masons more productive and the profession more attractive to new personnel; and increasing bottom line profits. However, the masonry industry cannot bear the risks of change alone. Safety professionals, architects/designers and the workers compensation insurance industry must lead the effort by specifying "inherently safe" products.
