protection equipment should comply with CSA Z94.3-07 or ANSI Z87.1 standards based on
the type of work performed.
2. Wear the appropriate type of full-face shield in addition to safety googles, as the work can
create chips, abrasive or particulate matter.
3. Wear gloves that provide protection based on the work materials or to reduce the effects of
tool vibration.
a. Do not wear gloves when operating a tool that can snag the material and pull the hand
into the tool.
4. Wear protective clothing designed for the work environment and tool.
5. Non-skid footwear is recommended to maintain footing and balance in the work environment.
