Importance of Personal Protective

Equipment (PPE) When hazards can not be eliminated through

engineering and /or administrative controls, PPEmust be used to protect the eyes, face, head, feet,

hands, arms, body, ears, and lungs. Preventable Injuries (BGSU History)

 ±  Chemical burns to the eyes

 ±  Chemical irritation to the eyes and skin

 ±  Particulate matter in the eye

 ±  Heat burns

 ±  Slips, trips, and falls

 ±  Cuts and abrasions
