Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Safety in the Office
According to OSHA, "Personal protective equipment, commonly referred to as "PPE", is equipment worn to minimize exposure to hazards that cause serious workplace injuries and illnesses. These injuries and illnesses may result from contact with chemical, radiological, physical, electrical, mechanical, or other workplace hazards.
Personal protective equipment for injuries may include items such as gloves, safety glasses and shoes, earplugs or muffs, hard hats, respirators, or coveralls, vests, and full body suits.
Protecting Staff from Illness in the Workplace
Workplace sickness leads to less productivity for your company. It is imperative that you make your workplace a safe environment for all employees and customers that are in your facilities. Protect against bacteria and viruses by utilizing hand sanitizers & dispensers and cleaning & disinfectant products in your workplace. PPE such as masks and gloves that are designed to protect individuals can also be a line of defense against viruses when needed.
