Dynamic Tree Solutions: Leaders in Arborist Safety & Compliance

Arborist Safety Standards in Brisbane

Dynamic Tree Solutions sets the benchmark for arborist safety standards in Brisbane. Our unwavering commitment to safety and compliance is the foundation of our operations. We recognize the inherent risks involved in arboriculture and prioritize the well-being of our team, clients, and the environment.

Tier 1 Compliance: Australian Minimum Industry Standards

As a Tier 1 compliant arborist company, Dynamic Tree Solutions surpasses Australian minimum industry standards. Our arborists undergo rigorous training, acquiring qualifications and certifications that demonstrate their expertise in arboricultural care. Lead climbers hold a Certificate 3 in arboriculture or higher, ensuring a high level of competency in safety procedures, tree management, and industry regulations.

We believe that safety begins with proper attire and protective gear. Our arborists adhere to strict safety protocols and wear specialized equipment designed to safeguard them during tree work operations. These safety measures include:

• High-visibility attire: Our arborists wear brightly colored clothing to maximize visibility, reducing the risk of accidents by ensuring they are easily seen by others on-site.
• Steel-capped boots: We equip our arborists with sturdy boots that feature protective reinforcement in the toe area, providing robust protection against potential foot hazards such as falling objects or sharp debris.
• Hard hats: Arborists wear hard hats to safeguard their heads from impact injuries caused by falling branches or equipment. This vital protective gear mitigates the risk of head trauma and ensures their safety while working at heights.
• Ear protection: Prolonged exposure to high noise levels generated by chainsaws and other equipment can lead to hearing damage. To mitigate this risk, our arborists use ear protection, such as earmuffs or earplugs, to minimize the impact of noise and maintain their auditory health.
• Eye protection: Flying wood chips, debris, and harmful substances pose significant risks to the eyes during tree work. To protect against these hazards, our arborists wear appropriate eye protection, such as safety glasses or goggles, which shield their eyes from potential injuries and ensure clear vision while working.
• Sunscreen: Our arborists understand the importance of protecting their skin from harmful UV radiation during outdoor work. They apply sunscreen to exposed areas, reducing the risk of sunburn and long-term damage caused by excessive sun exposure.
• Chainsaw chaps/pants (when required): When working with chainsaws, our arborists prioritize their safety by wearing specialized chaps or pants. These protective garments provide an additional layer of defense against potential chainsaw-related injuries, specifically shielding their legs from accidental contact with the chainsaw blade.
