Organizations are required to take measures to minimize exposure of employees to hazardous situations and materials. Personal protective equipment also known as PPE, is an important barrier between a worker and the environment. 

PPE is clothing or equipment that is worn to prevent or minimize exposure to hazards. Hard hats, gloves, steel toed shoes, safety glasses, hearing protection devices, respirators and full body suits are some of the examples of PPE. Different tasks require different types of PPE. Organizations must train their employees on the proper way to wear, inspect and maintain PPE for each task associated with each job.
