Ensuring the safety of workers in the workplace is a serious matter and should be prioritized, especially in the gas station sector, where supply activities at service stations present risks of chemical and physical contamination.
Dispatchers, people close to the pumps, for example, cleaning staff, must be protected with high-visibility, fire-resistant or flame-retardant clothing.
Gas stations also employ administrative staff, station managers, and supervisors, all of whom should be provided with a distinctive and eye-catching uniform for easy identification. We offer clothing designed to provide both safety and comfort for each of them.
RISKS OF WORKING AT A GAS STATION
Gas stations or service stations are, among other things, workplaces where there is continuous contact with liquid fuels. This leads to various risks common to other jobs, such as falls, cuts from tools, and electrical shocks. But, in addition, gas station attendants face a series of specific risks that require special attention, including:
- Fires and/or explosions caused by contact of flammable products with flames.
- They can also be run over because it is a transit area and blind spots can be created where drivers cannot locate the staff.
- They may suffer from illnesses caused by inhaling toxic fumes in the long term.
And, although these are some of the most common risks at gas stations, it should be noted that many other tasks are carried out at service stations and therefore more accidents occur.
