Upon completion of this unit the participants will be able to identify the need for Personal Protective Equipment on Wisconsin Dairy Farms.
LEARNING OBJECTIVE
4
1. Identify the requirements for PPE.2. Develop a hazard assessment program as
it pertains to PPE.3. Evaluate a variety of PPE devices and
determine the types of equipment necessary for their farm.
4. Understand the training requirements for the workers on proper usage of PPE.

Preferred methodEliminate or reduce exposure
ELIMINATION OF HAZARDS: ENGINEERING CONTROLS
11
Eliminate or reduce the exposure
Job rotations, varied hours
ELIMINATION OF HAZARDS: ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS

EMPLOYER’S
RESPONSIBILITIES
14
Properly wear PPEAttend training sessions on PPECare for, clean and maintain PPE Inform a supervisor of the need to repair or replace PPE
EMPLOYEE’S
RESPONSIBILITIES
15
Safe design and constructionEasy of maintenanceFit and comfort Are the PPE compatible if worn
togetherMust meet standards developed by
American National Standards Institute (ANSI)

TYPES OF PPE
19
Flying particles Liquid chemicals Chemical gases or vaporsPotentially infected materialPotentially harmful light radiation
EYE AND FACE
PROTECTION
20
Regular prescription corrective lenses do not provide adequate protection
Incorporate the prescription into the design
Wear additional eye protection over their prescription lenses.
PRESCRIPTION LENSES
21
When handling chemicals in the milk house or shop
Making repairs to structures or machineryAreas where there is a high level of dustWhenever there is possibility or likelihood
of flying particles
EYE PROTECTION ON A DAIRY FARM
22
Fit properly and be comfortableUnrestricted vision and movementDurable and cleanableUnrestricted functioning of any other PPE
EYE & FACE PROTECTION
23
Safety eye glasses: Constructed of metal or plastic Impact-resistant lenses. Side shields (ANSI approved)
TYPES OF EYE PROTECTION
24
Goggles:
EYE PROTECTION
Tight-fitting eye protection
Protection from impact, dust and splashes
Fit over corrective lenses
25
Face Shields:Transparent sheets of ANSI approved plastic Extend from eyebrows to below the chin and
across the entire width of the employee's head
EYE PROTECTION
26
Risk of possible foot or leg injuries
From falling, rolling objects
Crushing or penetrating materials
FOOT AND LEG PROTECTION
27
TYPES OF FOOT AND LEG PROTECTION
Leggings: protect legs while welding
Steel toed boots
Boots: provide slip resistance on wet surfaces
Comfortable to wear and the correct fit
28
skin absorption of harmful substances
chemical or thermal burns
electrical dangersbruises
abrasionscutspunctures fractures amputations
HAND AND ARM PROTECTION
Potential hazards include:
29
PPE: GLOVES FOR DIFFERENT USES
NeoprenePolyvinyl Alcohol(PVC)
Wire mesh
PolyvinylChloride (PVC)
NitrileNaturalRubber
LeatherKevlar WeldingCotton
Anti-vibration
30
CARE OF GLOVES
Inspect before each use not torn, puncturedFill glove with water and tightly roll cuffDiscolored or stiff don’t use
31
Exposure to excessive noise:Measured in decibels (dB)85 dB protection should be availablePermissible exposure for 8 hours = 90 dB without
protectionLength of time exposedEmployee movement
OSHA consultation

HEARING PROTECTION
34
Pesticide vapors Dusty fieldsHydrogen sulfide in manure pitsNitrogen dioxide in silos. Farmer’s Lung and Organic Dust
Toxicity Syndrome (ODTS) Allergic reactions to dust from
moldy hay or grain
RESPIRATORY ISSUES
35
Dust: largest of the particlesMolds: released from hay or grain when
disturbedMists: suspended liquid dropletsFumes: solid particles of evaporated
metals (welding)
RESPIRATORY ISSUES
36
Gases: gaseous at room temperature hydrogen sulfide (manure pits), nitrogen dioxide (Silo gas), carbon monoxide
Vapors: evaporate from liquid – pesticides, paint
RESPIRATORY ISSUES
37
Oxygen deficient atmosphere: manure storage pits, sealed silos
Structures when oxygen level is below 21%
RESPIRATORY ISSUES
38
Air purifying
Supplied air
The cartridge and respirator must be made by the same manufacturer
CATEGORIES OF
RESPIRATORS
39
Filters Do not supply oxygenGood for molds, dust
Chemical cartridgeLow concentrations of gases, vaporsActivated charcoal
AIR PURIFYING
40
Dust, mists, metal fumes2 elastic straps for a better seal
MECHANICAL FILTER
41
Only kind to be used in IDLH situationsManure pits, sealed silos, fumigated binsAir line respirators: clean air through hose
connected to air pumpSelf contained breathing apparatus (SCBA):
portable air tank scuba divers, fire fighters
SUPPLIED-AIR RESPIRATORS
42
Glasses, gum, tobacco chewing, facial hair can prevent a proper fit
Do not wear contacts Proper cleaning and storage of PPEInspect for damageReplace as needed
