Any employee that plans to operate bucket trucks should wear the proper protective gear as well. This gear includes such things as safety goggles, work gloves, hard hats, and appropriate protection from potential falling objects. The operator/employee of the safety bucket should always have his feet planted at its floor and the distribution and load should be checked regularly to ensure that they fall within the appropriate safety guidelines.

All of these safety precautions are to ensure that people within the operating area of the trucks and equipment are safe at all times.
