Radio essential
You have people working around machinery, alone, and so having a radio is very important. If you're 10 minutes away from a phone and there's a leak of sand, in the time it takes to get to the phone and back, there's going to be a big mess there, and it's a loss of production time for not only us but for other people that have to go clean it.
We wear the standard earmuffs, and also get the earmuffs with the headsets where the radio works inside them.
