Safety Helmet Liner

During the winter months the weather
tends to be cold and windy, which can
become uncomfortable on any exposed
skin. This can be aggravated by the need
to wear safety helmets, where the cold
plastic straps contact the skin causing
further discomfort.

To alleviate this it is tempting to wear a
cloth or wool hat under the helmet. This is
not acceptable as any improvised solution
can interfere with the functionality of the
safety helmet.

However, there are solutions purpose made
to be worn under safety helmets (as per
photo). These are approved for use with
the type of helmets we specify and can be
supplied to any crew who requests one.

If you would like a safety helmet liner,
please contact your line manager.

We are all a product of learning. Every skill we have; everything we know; everything we believe and everything we do has
been learned throughout the course of our lives. Some of us learn best by studying graphs and charts, some through visual
presentations, and some by reading detailed text books. It is important that we receive information in a format that works for
us as individuals! That’s why at Xmo Strata we use a variety of communication platforms such as bulletins, newsletters,
videos etc. However, if you feel there is a better way for us to share health and safety information, please let us know.
Ultimately, your safety is in your hands – but we will do all we can to keep you well informed!
