Understand the types of PPE. Know the basics of conducting a “hazard assessment” of the workplace. Select appropriate PPE for a variety of circumstances. Understand what kind of training is needed in the proper use and care of PPE. The information in this guide is general in nature and does not address all workplace hazards or PPE requirements.
Identify steps taken to assess potential hazards in every employee’s work space and in workplace operating procedures. Identify appropriate PPE selection criteria. How to properly care for and store PPE. Identify how you will assess employee understanding of PPE training. Identify how you will enforce proper PPE use.
Protective Equipment (PPE) requires all employers to assess their workplace for hazards that might require the use of personal protective equipment. If PPE has to be used, the supervisor must select
review the basic principles of personal protective equipment, also known as PPE, use in health care settings. The second is to discuss models of engagement to enhance staff education for PPE use. Understanding these two core objectives will set the groundwork to improve the culture of safety related to infection

•PPE is a type of control method that reduces employee exposure to hazards when engineering and administrative controls are not feasible or effective in reducing these exposures to acceptable levels •i.e. goggles, aprons, gloves, respirators, ear plugs •If PPE is used, a PPE program should be implemented that explains: •The hazards present
The objective of the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Program is to protect employees from the risk of injury by creating a barrier against workplace hazards. Personal protective equipment is not a substitute for good engineering or administrative controls or good work practices, but should be used in conjunction with
We will review the critical role of Standard Precautions as a foundation for preventing healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). This module was developed by national infection prevention experts devoted to improving patient safety and infection prevention efforts.
