Welcome to the “Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)” video course meant to cover the different types of equipment employees must wear to guard against workplace hazards. This series comprises seven lessons and goes over everything from basic employer requirements for compliance to individual kinds of PPE for employees. First, this course explains how employers need to perform a hazard assessment to identify workplace hazards. Then, based on what they learn, employers need to implement engineering and administrative controls to help minimize or eliminate those hazards. If that’s not sufficient, the employer needs to acquire PPE to fill the gaps in safety. The subsequent lessons go over the specific types of PPE, including equipment that provides eye, face, foot, leg, hearing, hand, arm, and respiratory protection. Clearly there are many different types that you need to be aware of… But, by completing this course, you’ll have an understanding of the types of PPE available and how to choose, use, and care for the gear properly.
