I work in construction and recently updated from a 3G to an iPhone 4. I would like to use my 3G while I am at work and my 4 all other times to lower the chance that I destroy my brand new phone. Is the new micro sim the only active sim? Can I turn off my 4 and turn on my 3G to use the 3G while at work? Or do I need to swap sims with an adapter?

You need to use an adaptor if you want to switch between the 4 and 3G.
 
I wouldn't advise it though. I got my micro-sim stuck in my 3GS one day. Not a pretty sight. Those sim adapters are pretty cheaply made.
