Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is any safety equipment workers wear to prevent injury in the workplace when engineering and administrative controls fail to eliminate the hazard.

specialized clothing or equipment worn by an employee for protection against infectious materials” Types of PPE Used in Healthcare Settings
Gloves – protect hands
Gowns/aprons – protect skin and/or clothing
Masks and respirators– protect mouth/nose
Respirators – protect respiratory tract from airborne infectious agents.
Types of PPE Used in Healthcare Settings-Goggles – protect eyes
Face shields – protect face, mouth, nose, and eyes
Key Points About PPE-Don before contact with the patient, generally before entering the room
Use carefully – don’t spread contamination
Remove and discard carefully, either at the doorway or immediately outside patient room; remove respirator outside room
Immediately perform hand hygiene How to Safely Use PPE-Keep gloved hands away from face
Avoid touching or adjusting other PPE
Remove gloves if they become torn; perform hand hygiene before donning new gloves
Limit surfaces and items touched. Contaminated” and “Clean” Areas of PPE-Contaminated – outside front
Areas of PPE that have or are likely to have been in contact with body sites, materials, or environmental surfaces where the infectious organism may reside
Clean – inside, outside back, ties on head and back
Areas of PPE that are not likely to have been in contact with the infectious organism
Sequence for Removing PPE-Gloves
Face shield or goggles
Gown
Mask or respirator
Where to Remove PPE-At doorway, before leaving patient room or in anteroom*
Remove respirator outside room, after door has been closed*
Standard Precautions-Previously called Universal Precautions
Assumes blood and body fluid of ANY patient could be infectious
Recommends PPE and other infection control practices to prevent transmission in any healthcare setting
Decisions about PPE use determined by type of clinical interaction with patient

Safety Glasses & Protective Eyewear – All About Eyes ProtectionGarment Printing
Safety glasses offer the best protection for our eyes against various hazards you can encounter at your job or in daily life. PPE glasses are made according to the highest quality requirements. Frames and filters are both certified to guarantee the finest quality. Your prescription and protection glasses must fit properly to provide the necessary protection for your eyes.
There are a variety of types that may be worn over most prescription eyeglasses to ensure your safety at work.
Your eyes are irreplaceable. There are numerous risks at industrial workplaces that can cause either short-term or long-term damage to the eyes. These eye protection glasses are vital for preventing eye damage.

Safety in the Workplace
1. GEARING UP FOR
SAFETY
In this presentation we’ll talk about
safety in the workplace. There are
four specific areas we’ll touch on.
Those areas are:
• Head Protection
• Hand Protection
• Face Protection
• Foot Protection

HARD HATS ARE ESSENTIAL
Purpose
Hard hats are required when working
in areas where there is a potential
for injury to the head from falling
objects. In addition, hard hats
designed to reduce electrical shock
are required when working near
exposed electrical conductors that may
contact the head.
Specialty types of hard hats include
those with miner's light attachments,
reflective stripe for night work, face
shields for welders, and attachments
for visors or earmuffs.
Use of Hard Hats
Hard hats should be used when falling
object hazards may result from
activities with proximity to:
persons or operations where accidental
dropping or loss of material, tools,
equipment or other articles could lead
to a head injury;
a barricaded or posted demolition or
construction area where head hazards
exist;
objects stored on shelves, platforms,
etc. that may fall and cause head
injury; or
overhead exposed energized conductors

INSPECT HARD HATS REGULARLY
Hard hats should be routinely inspected for dents, cracks or other signs of deterioration.
Always replace hard hats after sustaining a heavy blow or electrical shock.
All hard hats must comply with ANSI Z89.1, American National Standard for Personal
Protection - Protective Headwear for Industrial Workers - Requirements. The suspension
system inside the hat is designed to help absorb and dissipate impact while keeping a
clearance between the head and shell of the hat. The class of hat is usually noted
inside the hat shell.

ALWAYS WEAR THE
RIGHT GLOVE FOR THE
JOB
Wear the proper gloves
for the work you’re
doing. For example,
heavy-duty rubber gloves
are best for concrete
work. Choose welding
gloves to protect yourself
from heat and sparks.
Insulated gloves with
sleeves are the best
choice when exposed to
electrical hazards.
Always wear gloves
Safety Glove Operation
As a form of personal protective
equipment (PPE) gloves defend
the user's hands from general
risk. These items may protect
from occupational hazards as
well as recreational risks where
the hands are heavily involved
in the completion of a task.
Gloves feature individual sheaths
for each digit to allow
articulation and sensation,
though these capabilities
vary. Gloves are either
nominally-sized
or dimensioned universally, but
good fitting gloves provide the
Standards
These assorted standards can provide
reference when determining safety glove needs.
•MIL- DTLI-32094 -- Military standards for
aircrew gloves
•ASTM F739 -- Testing of liquid/gas
permeability in safety gloves
•BS 511 -- Specifications for cold resistance
•BS 388 -- Safety gloves and mechanical risk
•BS 420 -- General purpose protective gloves
•ISO 13997 -- Cut resistance of PPE
•BS 1082-1-- Chainmail's resistance to puncture
•BS 381-4 -- Chain saw glove specifications
•BS 407 -- Protective gloves against thermal
risk
•BS 659 -- Firefighter protective gloves

gloves
•ASTM E1731 -- Testing residue on cleanroom

EYE AND FACE PROTECTION IS WORK-SPECIFIC GEAR
Eye and face protection should be selected based on the anticipated hazards in your
work. For example, safety glasses or face shields are a good choice for work operations
in which foreign objects can get into the eye (e.g, welding, cutting, grinding, etc.).
They’re also a good choice for work involving harmful chemicals or airborne particles.

EAR PROTECTION
Another important piece of personal protective gear are earplugs/earmuffs. This
gear is helpful for those working in high noise work areas where heavy
equipment or chainsaws are used.
It’s a good idea to regularly clean and inspect your ear protection to ensure
it’s free from cracks or damage that may affect its performance.

OTHER PROTECTION
If you’re working in an environment with chemical odors or small airborne particles, it
may be a good idea to wear a respirator. A respirator is a type of face mask that’s
positioned over the mouth and fastens tightly around the back of the head or over the
ears. It protects the mouth, nose, and lungs from harmful chemicals and airborne
particles.

FOOT PROTECTION IS MORE THAN JUST COMFORT
Construction workers should always wear work shoes or boots with slip resistant and
puncture resistant soles. If you work in an environment with heavy equipment or if
you’re at risk for being hit by a falling object, it’s also a good idea to wear safety-toed
(e.g. steel tipped) booths to prevent crushed toes.
