The key takeaways from the document are that a hazard analysis was conducted for asphalt road marking work. Several potential hazards were identified along with required controls and personal protective equipment to mitigate risks.

Some of the potential hazards identified include tripping/falling, falling objects, sprains/strains, back injury, eye injuries, noise, dust inhalation, use of hand tools and power tools, traffic management, chemical exposure and more.

Different tasks require different personal protective equipment like hard hat, safety glasses, gloves, boots, coveralls, dust masks depending on the hazards involved. The specific PPE is indicated for different tasks in the hazard analysis.
