The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires that employers protect their workers from workplace hazards that can cause injury or illness. Employers must perform a hazard assessment of the workplace and eliminate or reduce hazards by controlling it at its source. However, when engineering, work practice and administrative controls are not feasible or do not provide sufficient protection, employers must provide appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) to employees and ensure its use. Remember, Personal Protective Equipment is the last level of control.

OSHA requires all persons who perform tasks or enter areas where personal protective equipment or clothing is needed to receive this training.
Each year, hundreds of thousands of workers suffer injury because the required PPE was not used or worn. Your Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) keeps you safe in the workplace from hazardous conditions that pose a threat to your safety.
Your Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) keeps you safe in the workplace from hazardous conditions that pose a threat to your safety. It is important for you to feel safe while working so that you can devote all your attention to your work.
Many employees understand the need of wearing personal protection equipment (PPE) while on the job. However, for every cooperative employee, there is one who does not take their safety seriously.
Not wearing PPE can result in severe injury to yourself and to others around you. Workplaces like construction sites can be dangerous and accidents can happen in a few seconds time, and if an employee is not equipped well, then it can be life-threatening as well. It can result in the following things-
⦁ Experiencing injuries as a result of falling items or debris
⦁ Projectiles or chemicals harming the eyes.
⦁ Inhaling toxic gases
⦁ Cuts, Punctures and wounds
⦁ Burns caused by chemicals
⦁ Electrical hazards
⦁ Excessive noise or vibration exposure

Per OSHA): When an employer has reason to believe that an employee who has already been trained does not have the understanding and skill required by this standard, the employer shall retrain the employee. Additional reasons for retraining include:
⦁Changes in the workplace rendering previous training obsolete
⦁Changes in the types of PPE used render the previous training obsolete
⦁Inadequacies in an affected employee’s knowledge or use of assigned PPE indicate that the employee has not retained the requisite understanding or skill included in the program
