The Construction Labor Foundation, with financing from the State Foundation for the Prevention of Occupational Hazards, has created five interactive guides and two websites designated to training, information and technical consulting on matters related to the prevention of specific risks in construction.

One of the principal functions of the Construction Labor Foundation is to promote the improvement of safety and health conditions in the construction sector and, to do this, it is key to develop new tools of information and outreach that allow one to broaden their knowledge. The 5 interactive guides, which have recently been published, are a step in the right direction.

In the guides, users will find all types of resources such as manuals, fact sheets, posters or videos which are centered around aspects from the construction sector such as high-rise work, protection organizations, personal protection equipment (PPE) or machinery. Its contents are technical and, in addition to regulations, technical requirements or recruitment criteria, it also includes practical solutions and innovative proposals to face the different circumstances of each area.

The titles of the guides are the following:

- Interactive guide for the selection of PPE in the construction sector
Details what is the most used PPE by workers and facilitates comprehensive information on each.

- Interactive guide to select PPE and anchoring systems for high-rise work in construction
Shows which is the PPE for high-rise work and offers advice on the selection of the most adequate protection equipment based on the specifications of each job.

- Interactive guide on the technical requirements and preventive measures for high-rise work equipment

- Guide to implement mobility plans in the construction sector
