Personal Protective Equipment

Employers must protect employees from workplace hazards such as machines, hazardous substances, and dangerous work procedures that can cause injury. Viewing this safety presentation will help you to understand what you must do in order to protect your employees and co-workers.

This presentation is designed to assist trainers conducting OSHA 10-hour General Industry outreach training for workers.  Since workers are the target audience, this presentation emphasizes hazard identification, avoidance, and control – not standards.  No attempt has been made to treat the topic exhaustively.  It is essential that trainers tailor their presentations to the needs and understanding of their audience.

This presentation is not a substitute for any of the provisions of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 or for any standards issued by the U.S. Department of Labor.  Mention of trade names, commercial products, or organizations does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Department of Labor.
