In this workshop we will cover why proper flagger operations are important, the abilities of a good flagger, standard flagger procedures, and standard flagger practices for different types of set-ups.
This class will also include a hands-on demonstration of the STOP/SLOW paddle and red flag to allow participants to become familiar with these devices.
