It can stand for building, repair work, or safety tasks in plans, messages, or dashboards. Note that appearance can vary across platforms, apps, and fonts, so colors and details may differ. For accessibility, ensure surrounding text conveys the intended meaning. Cross‑platform, the emoji may render differently; provide descriptive text where needed to keep meaning clear for all users.

Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.
