INTRODUCTION:
The primary method of control: Preventing employees exposure to
hazardous materials. Usage of personal protective equipment
(PPE). Work area assessment. Determine the potential hazards and
selection the appropriate PPE . Training the employees regarding selection
of proper PPE for the required job.

BODY PROTECTION
Reasons for body protection: Temperature extremes. Hot splashes from molten metals and other
hot liquids. Potential impacts from tools, machinery and
materials. Hazardous chemicals.
![Page 9: PPE AMERICAN STDS.pptx](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081603/563dbb1e550346aa9aaa670f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
PROTECTIVE CLOTHES FOR BODY PROTECTION
Paper-like fiber: for dust and splashes. Treated wool and cotton: changing temperatures, fire-resistant, dust,
abrasions and rough and irritating surfaces. Duck: protection against cuts and bruises when handling
heavy, sharp or rough materials. Leather is often used to protect against dry heat
and flames. Rubber, rubberized fabrics, neoprene and
plastics protect against certain chemicals and physical
hazards.

Need to use a head protection: Impact and penetration of hazards as well as
from electrical shock and burns. Bumping heads against fixed objects, such as
exposed pipes or beams. Head contact in contact with electrical
hazards.

decibels (dB). The duration of each employee's exposure to
the noise. If employees move between work areas with
different noise levels. Whether noise is generated from one or
multiple sources.

PPE may not necessarily prevent the workers from accidents but it will surely reduce the impact of the accidents on an individual.
