Personal Protective Equipment: The Weakest Link in Employee Protection
Look at the Big Picture and Follow Through When Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is provided without training and oversight, the PPE itself can become the hazard. The process starts with Hazard Assessment and Control. PPE is supposed to be a temporary protection until an engineering or work practice control can be put in place to remove the potential for exposure. Example at OSHA ...
