Traffic marshals play a critical safety role on Singapore's roads and work zones. Using uncertified or improperly briefed staff exposes project owners to regulatory action and serious liability.
Certification and renewal
Workers should hold valid traffic control training aligned with LTA guidelines. Ask agencies to provide certificate copies and renewal dates before deployment. Never accept verbal assurances without documentation.
Site-specific briefings
Every site is different. Marshals need orientation on traffic flow diagrams, communication with LTA officers, PPE requirements, and incident reporting. Your manpower partner should attend joint briefings with your safety officer where possible.
