Workers that take part in roadside work projects have a very important job.  They help to keep the infrastructure of our roads in order, and help the flow of commerce. 

These workers have many different types of safety issues to be aware of.  The workers have to be safe with the tools and equipment that they handle.  Large tractors or pavement equipment are difficult to operate and require safety measures.  Other tools also require proper training to use.

One of the factors that are not in the hands of the workers is the safety of the vehicles on the road.  Workers have to be aware of possible drunk drivers, or out of control cars that could crash into them.
