All employees need to be provided with adequate personal protective equipment (PPE) for their particular role. This equipment must be checked regularly for wear and tear, and must also be used according to strict guidelines and procedures. Equipment may only leave the workplace for replacing or repairing purposes, and employees must be fully trained on the correct use for each item.MAKROSAFE / SAFETYWALLET / MY SAFETY SHOP are in Partnership

What is a Hard Hat? A hard hat is a type of helmet that is primarily used in work environments including construction and industrial sites, to protect the head of the wearer from injuries. These injuries occur when falling objects land on the head of the user, flying objects hit the user’s head; the user falls on their heads onto a dangerous or hard object or even gets electrified. So, do you know how often should hard hats be inspected? https://oursafetysecurity.com/how-often-should-hard-hats-be-inspected/
