Personal protective equipment (PPE) refers to clothing and equipment that protects the body from hazards. PPE addresses physical, electrical, chemical, heat, biohazard, and airborne risks. PPE is needed when engineering controls cannot adequately reduce risks. While PPE protects the individual, it does not eliminate hazards at the source and risks remain if equipment fails. Common types of PPE include respirators, skin protection like gloves, hearing protection, safety glasses, and safety helmets. Collective protection equipment is used to protect groups in hazardous environments like chemical plants, providing a contaminant-free space without needing constant individual PPE use. Examples include extinguishers, safety lines, and sealed shelters.

3. PPE
• Personal protective equipment (PPE)
refers to protective clothing, helmets,
goggles, or other garments or
equipment designed to protect the
wearer's body from injury. The hazards
addressed by protective equipment
include physical, electrical, heat,
chemicals, biohazards, and airborne
particulate matter.

4. PPE
• The purpose of personal protective equipment
is to reduce employee exposure to hazards
when engineering and administrative controls
are not feasible or effective to reduce these
risks to acceptable levels.
• PPE is needed when there are hazards present.
• PPE has the serious limitation that it does not
eliminate the hazard at source and may result
in employees being exposed to the hazard if
the equipment fails.

5. PPE BY TYPE - RESPIRATORS
• Respirators serve to protect the user
from breathing in contaminants in the
air, thus preserving the health of one's
respiratory tract.
• There are two main types of respirators.

6. RESPIRATORS
• One type of respirator functions by
filtering out chemicals and gases or
airborne particles from the air
breathed by the user
• A second type of respirator protects
users by providing clean, respirable air
from another source.

10. SKIN PROTECTION
• Any form of PPE that acts as a
barrier between the skin and the
agent of exposure can be
considered skin protection.

COLLECTIVE EQUIPMENT PROTECTION

23. CEP
• Collective protection is used for group
protection of personnel in a nuclear,
biological, chemical or industrial
environment.
• Collective protection is an important
aspect of fixed site defense. Ideally, it
provides a contaminant free
environment for people, allowing relief
from the continuous wearing of gas
masks and other PPE equipment.

plastic etc
• Class B: FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS such as
paraffin, petrol, oil etc
• Class C: FLAMMABLE GASES such as
propane, butane, methane etc
