Sitting behind a desk from 9-5 isn’t for everyone. Some people want to be active while at work. If you also enjoy being outside, then construction is the field for you. Here are the top tips every new construction worker should know before their first day on the job.
Safety First
Perhaps the most vital thing that novice construction workers should know is that safety always comes first. Beginners should do some of their own research before learning things on site. For example, you should learn about all the essential equipment you need to keep yourself safe. You’ll need a pair of protective eye goggles, thick gloves, and sturdy boots. Once you have the right equipment, you’ll be one step closer to success as a construction worker.
Learn the Equipment
Another top tip every new construction worker should know is to learn the equipment. You should look into what equipment you’re going to use every day before you start using it. For example, it’s crucial to know the top 10 hoist and crane terms so that you know what everyone’s talking about. You don’t want to not know the lingo that everyone’s using on your first day. Also, make sure you know how each machine works so that you’re ready to go.
Essential Maintenance
Construction equipment requires maintenance to stay working. Workers should know the necessary steps to keep things running effectively. For starters, you must clean the tools on a regular basis. Any gunk or debris can impact the way a machine runs and create delays in the workday. Furthermore, everyone ought to know which wire goes where so they can reconnect things if something gets loose.
Construction work is perfect for those who don’t want to be stuck in an office. Though, you should do some research before you take on the job. You need to learn about the machines and equipment so that you can stay safe while out on a job. The more you know, the better off you’ll be.

PALESTINIANS
This afternoon, the Secretary-General has a scheduled appearance at the Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People. In his remarks, he will tell the committee, following the agreement that has been in effect, that we must keep pushing for a permanent ceasefire and the release of all hostages without delay. We cannot go back to more death and destruction.
In speaking to the broader situation, the Secretary-General will say that in the search for solutions we must not make the problems worse. It is vital to stay true to the bedrock of international law. It is essential to avoid any form of ethnic cleansing and, of course, he will reaffirm the two-state solution. And you can follow those remarks on UN WebTV starting at 3 p.m.
OCCUPIED PALESTINIAN TERRITORY
Our Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs, Tom Fletcher, is continuing his visit to Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territory. On the political level, Mr. Fletcher held discussions over the past two days with Israeli authorities, including President Isaac Herzog, as well as officials from the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Mr. Fletcher described these engagements as practical, emphasizing the need to build on the progress since the ceasefire and sustain the large-scale delivery of UN aid into Gaza. On the ground, Mr. Fletcher visited today different areas of the West Bank.
In East Jerusalem, he visited Silwan neighbourhood where he met with residents facing home demolitions and the threat of forcible eviction by Israeli authorities.
Mr. Fletcher also toured what is known as Area C of the Ramallah governorate, where he heard and saw the humanitarian impact of access restrictions on the livelihoods of Palestinian and their daily lives. These restrictions include Israeli checkpoints and of course the 712-kilometre-long barrier.
And just a short while ago in Ramallah, Mr. Fletcher held discussions with national Palestinian NGOs, who are at the heart of humanitarian response efforts across the Occupied Palestinian Territory.
GAZA
In Gaza, our humanitarian colleagues report that our aid operations – together with our partners - continue to scale up across the Gaza Strip. We are also carrying out assessments to determine the needs of impacted and displaced families, particularly the most vulnerable.
Across Gaza, 22 bakeries supported by the World Food Programme are now operational. And our health partners continue to provide health services as well. We and our partners estimate that more than half a million displaced Palestinians have now returned to the governorates of both Gaza and North Gaza, where there is an urgent need for tents and shelter materials. Our partners say they’ve transported 22 truckloads of tents from southern to northern Gaza yesterday to address these needs but we need to get more tents in.
For its part, UNICEF continues to distribute nutrition support for infants. Across Gaza, the World Food Programme has provided lipid-based nutrient supplements to more than 80,000 children and pregnant or breastfeeding women since the ceasefire took effect. Humanitarian partners have screened more than 30,000 children under the age of five for malnutrition since the ceasefire took effect. Of those children under five screened, over 1,000 cases of acute malnutrition have been identified, including 230 cases of severe acute malnutrition.
And to sustain learning activities across the Gaza Strip, education partners established three new temporary learning spaces yesterday in Gaza, Rafah, and Khan Younis governorates, benefiting some 200 children.

The Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator for the DRC, Bruno Lemarquis, called today for the urgent reopening of the airport in Goma.
Mr. Lemarquis stressed that the airport is a lifeline and that the survival of thousands of people depends on its reopening to facilitate evacuation of injured people, delivery of medical supplies and arrival of humanitarian reinforcements.
The Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs reports that thousands of civilians are still on the move in and around Goma.
Figures remain difficult to verify, but reports indicate significant numbers of people have left displacement sites along the Kanyaruncinya road and moved towards the area of Rutshuru. Other displaced people are also moving towards the Minova area.
Hundreds of thousands of people remain displaced, living in displacement sites or with host communities in North Kivu, including on the Goma-Sake axis, where large numbers of displaced people remain in displacement sites.
OCHA and its partners have been visiting displacement sites outside Goma over the last several days to assess conditions. These efforts are ongoing.
GUEST TOMORROW
Tomorrow, the guest at the Noon briefing will be Vivian van de Perre, the Deputy Special Representative of the Secretary-General for Protection and Operations.
She will brief reporters live virtually from Goma.
OCCUPIED PALESTINIAN TERRITORY
Turning to the Middle East. Tom Fletcher, our Emergency Relief Coordinator and head of the Department of Humanitarian Affairs, is continuing his visit to Israel and the occupied Palestinian territory. Today, he was in Nir Oz in southern Israel, where one-quarter of all residents were killed or taken hostage in the Hamas-led attack on 7 October 2023.
In a social media post, Mr. Fletcher stressed that the ceasefire must hold, that all civilians must be protected, and that all hostages must be freed.
He also held several meetings with Israeli officials last night and again today.
They discussed ways to sustain the surge of humanitarian support to Gaza, as well as the ongoing challenges in the West Bank that we have been reporting.
As of earlier today, we and our our humanitarian partners estimate that more than 565,000 people have crossed from the south of Gaza to the north since 27 January. More than 45,000 people have been observed moving from the north to the south.
Meanwhile, the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs tells us that we and our partners are working to mitigate the impact of the widespread destruction of critical water, sanitation and hygiene infrastructure that is taking place throughout the Gaza Strip.
Some 40 new water points have already been established over the past week, and partners are now trucking water to 272 water points throughout North Gaza governorate alone. Through that, they were able to deliver more than 1,000 cubic metres of safe drinking water and nearly 900 cubic metres of domestic water to about 177,000 people each day.
To address the water shortages, our colleagues at UNOPS, the UN Office for Project Services delivered 40,000 litres of fuel to Gaza City yesterday to power water pumps and facilitate trucking – and we hope to have the Executive Director of UNOPS brief you on the situation in Gaza next week. Meanwhile, the World Food Programme is also expanding fuel storage capacity in the Strip.
Efforts are also ongoing to dispatch water pipes purchased by UNICEF to northern Gaza to prevent key facilities from overflowing before it rains.
We also have an update for you on the winter response in Gaza. Between Thursday and Sunday, our partners distributed tarpaulins and winter clothing to more than 2,000 households in northern Gaza. In southern Gaza, 10,000 tarpaulins were distributed between 25 January and 2 February, with an additional 200 tarpaulins distributed in the Gaza governorate.
Over the past two days, one of our humanitarian partners also distributed 600 tarpaulins to 300 households in the Khan Younis area.

United Nations Video: A Dialogue between Palestinian and Israeli Former Combatants | United Nations
Two former combatants on opposing sides of the decades-old conflict between Palestinians and Israel have come to together to discuss how Israeli Jews and Palestinians can live side by side in peace. Given the brutality of the recent conflict in Gaza between Hamas and Israel, it has become increasingly difficult to imagine a durable peace. Yet, that remains the aim of a remarkable grassroots organization called Combatants for Peace.
The organization, which has been nominated for two Nobel Peace Prizes, is made up of Israelis and Palestinians who once embraced violence but have since turned to peace and dialogue as the only solution to healing the wounds of both communities.

The King and Queen of Sweden have visited the grounds of a shooting at an adult education centre in Orebro.
Ten people were killed, plus the gunman who local media in Sweden have named as 35 year-old Rickard Anderson.
The attacker shot at police during the attack and it's not known if he killed himself, but police say there is "a lot" to suggest that.
Police are also unsure Anderson he had gun licences and are still trying to establish a motive for the attack.

BBC News Video: 'Motives of Orebro gunman still unclear', say Swedish police. #Sweden #Orebro #BBCNews
Israel’s Prime Minister Netanyahu is the first foreign leader to meet with President Trump since his inauguration.
The visit comes despite the International Criminal Court (ICC) issuing arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu in November 2024 as well as Israel's former Minister of Defence Yoav Gallant.
Hamas leaders have also faced war crimes allegations, including arrest warrants from the ICC.
Israel and Hamas have denied the allegations, and those against Israel are rejected by the US.
It’s been over a year since some of the allegations were made. This explainer recaps on who’s making the accusations, what evidence they have, and the latest on legal proceedings.

International Video: This is Gaza: witnessing the Israel Hamas war | Documentary
'This is Gaza’ follows the emotional journey of Palestinian filmmaker Yousef Hammash. As Israel carried out an unprecedented assault on the territory, following the fatal Hamas attacks on October 7, Yousef reported from the warzone amidst the military and humanitarian crisis.
[Subscribe: https://bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe]
The film offers a devastating portrait of life and survival – before, during, and after the seismic events of October 7th – told through the eyes of Yousef.
Watching back his footage, he charts his family’s displacement and the heartbreaking decision to leave his home as he travels south to Rafah and eventually to London, where he continues to report on the situation in Gaza.
The film is produced for Channel 4 Streaming, executive produced by Ed Fraser and Girish Juneja and directed by Tom Besley.

But Mr Netanyahu has also been meeting with prominent Evangelical Christians. They are a powerful constituency in America and their interpretation of the Bible has made them resolute allies of Israel.
They believe that the Jewish people have a God-given right to all the land - including the West Bank - which is internationally recognised as Palestinian territory.
