Our workplace is full of hazards, hazards that can hurt us or kill us. Controlling these hazards and preventing injuries is the purpose of making sure you are wearing the correct personal protective equipment, or PPE, for your job. Because when our body parts are exposed to certain hazards, there is a potential for bodily harm to occur. Knowing how to choose the correct PPE and knowing the correct way to use it will help get you home safely each night.  In this program, we provide an overview of common types of personal protective equipment and Cal OSHA’s regulations requiring its use.

After watching the program, the participant should be able to explain the following:

• Ways to eliminate potential hazards in the workplace;
• How to correctly choose and be trained on your specific PPE;
• When you will need to use PPE while on the job;
• When you need to change out PPE, so you are properly protected.
