Personal protective equipment (PPE)
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is legally defined as ‘all equipment (including clothing affording
protection against the weather) which is intended to be worn or held by a person at work and which
protects the user against one or more risks to their health or safety’.
In the hierarchy of risk control, PPE is considered to rank lowest and represent the option of last
resort. PPE is only appropriate where the hazard in question cannot be totally removed or controlled
in such a way that harm is unlikely (for example by isolating the hazard or reducing the risk at source
to an acceptable level).
All company personnel and operators should wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
defined as a result of relevant risk assessments in accordance with the Personal Protective
Equipment (PPE) Regulations.
Wear appropriate PPE according to the product safety advice given in this document
