The interviewer asks this question to ensure you will follow the company's policy regarding safety protection. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires employers to provide personal protective equipment when necessary to protect their employees from injury, illness, and fatalities. If employees do not wear the proper safety equipment and become injured, the employer can pay hefty fines. When responding, reassure the interviewer that you take your safety seriously and have no issues wearing protective gear.

Safety is a top priority in the construction industry, and the interviewer does not want to hear that you do not consider your safety or the safety of others a priority. Avoid saying that you do not like wearing hard hats or steel-toe boots or that safety harnesses are overrated. If you are flippant about your safety, the interviewer will not consider hiring you as you could be a liability.

"No, I do not have an issue with wearing safety protection, and I wear my protective gear at all times while working. I have seen too many construction workers become injured or disabled because they were not following the safety procedures. I have a family to go home to at the end of the day, and I take my safety very seriously."
