Posted By Mark Eden I would like to ask if there is any body with information on the availability of hard hat head protection for Sikhs who wear turbans? I vaguely recall that there been some type of helmet available. I know that Sikhs are excempt from wearing head protection as they wear turbans, but we have concerns and want to provide the best protection for all construction operatives. Many thanks in advance

Posted By Salus Turbans do not provide as good protection as a hard hat. the whole industry should be insisting on personnel insurance for these employees to cover the cost of any treatment given to them by the national health service after a head injury has occurred.
