The following clothing requirements apply to all Hogan employees on the jobsite.
Hogan Construction self performs a variety of work such as the earthwork (utilities), curb, gutter, and sidewalk, footings and walls, flatwork, etc. The majority of this work is done outside. Workers on these crews must wear their hard hats at all times. In addition, while our Equipment Operators are operating equipment, they must wear their hard hat inside the piece of equipment that they are operating.
For work inside the building of a Hogan project, when there isn’t any overhead work, interior ceiling grids are in, and the finishes are going in, the hard hat requirement may be lifted. Even though the hard hat requirement may be lifted at this stage of the project, employees are still required to wear high-viz shirts or vests, safety glasses, work gloves, long pants, and a quality pair of boots.

- Full-brim or half brim hard hat that must meet ANSI standards and specifications for head protection:
- Project Superintendents are to wear a RED hard hat.
