RĂšgles
- Wildfire safety. No open flames. If you smoke, do it in the designated spot, keep a metal butt tin, and never on dry ground.
- Tool safety first. PPE on (boots, gloves, eye/eye protection), tie hair back, no loose clothing. Ask before using any power tool; chainsaw only if pre-approved.
- No alcohol/drugs on tools. If youâre impaired, you donât workâfull stop.
- Respect the land. Stay on terraces/paths, donât trample seedlings, donât cut plants/trees unless itâs on the task list.
- Gates & animals. Close gates behind you. Donât feed animals without asking. Report any stray dogs/boars immediately.
- Clean as you go. End each task with a 10-minute reset: tools cleaned/oiled, hoses coiled, materials stacked, work area swept.
- Waste & sorting. Reuse stone/timber where possible. Sort recycling. Hazardous waste (oily rags, blades) in the marked box only.
- Check-ins > guesswork. Unsure about a step? Ask earlyâweâd rather explain once than fix later.
- Autonomy with notes. Keep a simple log (what you did, whatâs next, materials needed). Suggest small improvementsâone/week is the goal.
- Heat routine. Early starts, hats, sunscreen, water bottle always on you. Take shade breaks; tell us if you feel dizzy or low-energy.
- Noise & neighbors. Power tools only during agreed hours.
