PPE Protection
Congratulations to Evan Budziszewski, last month's winner.
Why This Matters
Recent injuries show that eye, face, and hand protection must be treated as a daily requirement, especially when sanding, cutting, grinding, or spraying chemicals.
Recent Injuries Included
- Metal in eye.
- Lacerations while sanding or cutting.
- Hand injuries.
Expectations
- Safety glasses at all times.
- Face shields when grinding, sanding, or cutting.
- Proper PPE for chemical spraying.
- Evaluate FR-rated winter jackets because a current gap has been identified.
- Clean machines after use to prevent secondary hazards.
Discussion Question
Where could additional face shields be placed?
Action Step
Inventory PPE this week and identify shortages.
