PPE Safety

In today's podcast, we'll talk about PPE Safety.

So stay tuned.

You can find the show notes to each episode, links to the information mentioned on the podcast, the social media platforms we're on, and anything else related to the podcast at WarehouseSafetyTips.com.

If you're a seasoned Podcast Listener, this podcast will be different from most you listen to.  It's based around exactly what the name implies - Warehouse Safety Tips.  And since the people in that industry are busy - we know time is money so each episode will be as short and to the point as possible.

And now that all that is out of the way - let's get to the Podcast!

PPE Safety

As we come to what appears to be the end of the Covid Pandemic - public mask requirements have all but gone away.  However - in facilities where masks are part of PPE (Personal Protection Equipment) Safety Procedures, the need to wear them is still very much needed.

And it may not be your facility making the decision.  OSHA (The Occupational Safety and Health Administration) Guidelines may require that your facility wear certain PPE.

In addition to masks and respirators you wear to protect your breathing - don't forget these other important items to complete your PPE Safety.

Safety Glasses to protect your sight.Ear Plugs and Ear Muffs to protect your hearing.

Hard Hats to protect your head.
Gloves to protect your hands.
Steel Toed Boots to protect your feet.
Braces to protect your back.
Harnesses to protect you from falls.

More PPE Safety Items may be required at your facility, but this list should get you well on your way.

We've said this before, but it bears repeating.  Remember - your health and safety are your bosses regarding PPE Safety.  You're only fooling yourself if you think you're getting away with something by not wearing it.  It only takes a moment of not wearing PPE to introduce issues, injuries, and death in the worst-case scenarios.  Don't roll the dice when it comes to your health and safety.

We look forward to seeing you next week for another Warehouse Safety Tips.

Until then, have a great week and STAY SAFE!
