Construction Safety Week runs May 3 to 7 in 2027. Contractors hold stand-downs and toolbox talks on every site, and many give each worker a shirt or item that carries the safety message. For large contractors that means thousands of pieces delivered to many sites before Monday morning.
Ideas by budget
| Budget per person | Ideas |
|---|---|
| Under $15 | Safety Week t-shirt, hard hat stickers, insulated tumbler |

One shirt for every worker
A Safety Week shirt worn by every crew on the same day makes the message visible. Hi-vis tees work if they are certified for your sites.
Subcontractors
Decide early whether subcontractor crews get shirts too, since it can double the count.
Delivery to every site
We pack by job site with a count and size breakdown on each carton and ship to arrive the week before.
Hi-vis rules
For hi-vis worn on site, ask for garments certified to ANSI/ISEA 107 and keep logos off the reflective tape.
