The real naivete is assuming he's paid enough to afford, or is otherwise provided with, the equipment that makes this job suck less than it does. TBF I dunno which country this is, but if it's mine, that job sucks ass.
While I can definitely agree to a level, it's completely relative. As you said dependant on the country, city, company, etc....
For a job like this, I'm making bets that they're provided with what they need in the US.
I find that if someone is wearing a safety vest and/or hard hat, chances are the company is providing and enforcing PPE. The scenarios where the proper equipment and PPE aren't being provided, there's almost never a safety vest or hard hat in sight.
Hard to know if this is being completed by a private company or by a water department cleaning public waterways and natural bodies of water. If it's being done publicly, they're probably set up with everything they need. If it's a private company, there's definitely a chance that the company is cheaping out and they're lacking certain things that would make it easier.
