Why do I need PPE training?

OSHA doesn’t have a specific standard for PPE training. However, under the General Duty Clause, Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, employers are required to provide a workplace that “is free from recognizable hazards that are causing or likely to cause death or serious harm to employees.” Likewise, Canada requires employers to provide a safe work environment for their employees.

Because of these requirements, employers have a legal and ethical obligation to develop and maintain a workplace that is free from hazards associated with PPE. Employees have the right to work in an atmosphere that promotes the safety and well-being of all.

 

  • Did You Know?

  • PPE has different levels of defense to accommodate different needs.

  • Cleaning PPE affects the way PPE functions.

  • PPE saved the lives of two of the ten archeologists re-investigating King Tutankhamen’s tomb in the 1970s. The others died because, at the time, they weren’t required to wear it.
