Why Eye and Face Protection is Important?

Thousands of people are blinded each year from work related eye injuries. Injuries that could have been prevented, if only people would have used eye or face protection.

Why Respiratory Protection is Important?

Hazardous materials can enter your body in three ways:

1. Ingestion 2. Skin Absorption 3. Inhalation

Because many substances which are health hazards can become airborne, knowing how to protect yourself is very important

Why Respiratory Protection is Important?

Why Head Protection is Important?

Your head is a very delicate part of your body. In and around your head are: - Your eyes, with which you see; - Your ears, with which you hear;

- Your nose, with which you smell; - Your mouth, with which you eat and speak; and - Your brain, with which you think. Injuries to the head are very serious. For this reason, head protection and safety are very important.

Why Head Protection is Important?

Why Hand Protection is Important?

It has been estimated that almost 20% of all disabling accidents on the job involve the hands. Without your fingers or hands, your ability to work would be greatly reduced.

Human hands are unique. No other creature in the world has hands that can grasp, hold, move, and manipulate objects like human hands. They are one of your greatest assets. And, as such, must be protected and cared for.

Purpose of Personal Protective Equipment

While working in textile industries there is always a threat to workers’ health and safety.

Proper clothing and dress is required in the textile industry at all times.

To shield or isolate individuals from the chemical, physical and biological hazards that may be encountered at a Textile industry

Protective Equipment?Protective Equipment includes devices and garments to protect the following part of workers’ body from injuries:

• Eyes,• Face,• Head,• Ears,• Feet,• Hands and arms, and• Whole body.

PPE includes such items as

• Goggles,• Face Shields,• Safety glasses,• Hard hats,• Safety shoes,• Gloves,• Vests,• Earplugs / Earmuffs.

The "Personal Protective Equipment" Standard

Personal protection equipment is important. So important, that in 1994, OSHA (the Occupational Safety and Health Administration) established 29 CFR 1910.132-138, the "Personal Protection Equipment" standard.

Briefly stated, this standard requires that employers must establish and administer an effective PPE (Personal Protection Equipment) program for employees and that employees be trained in the proper use of PPE.

Employer Responsibilities

AssessmentEmployers are required to conduct an assessment to determine the various physical and health hazards that may be present in your work area.

Physical hazards include: Sources of falling objects; Sources of temperatures; Sources of sharp objects; Sources of electric hazards; and Floor conditions.

Health hazards include: Types of chemicals you

could exposed Sources of falling objects;

Sources of harmful dusts; and

Employee Responsibilities

Follow ALL Warnings and Precautions

Take time to read any and all warnings and precautions that may appear machines, equipment, chemicals, MSDSs, and personal protective equipment.

Hand and Arm Protection Gloves are commonly use to provide protection against the injuries including the following:

• Burn

• Bruises

• Abrasions

• Cuts

• Fractures

• Electric shocks.

• Chemical exposures.

Gloves (Spec. OSHA 3151-12R)

Foot and Leg Protection

Safety Shoes (Spec. ANSIZ41-1991)

Body Protection

Full body protection can protect the hazard that could cause bodily injury including the following;

• Intense Heat

• Splashes of chemicals and other hot liquids

• Impact from tools, machinery and material

• Cuts

•Hazardous Chemicals

These type of protection includes;

• Dungaree/ Full body suit

• Coveralls

• Aprons

• Surgical gown Full body Suit (Spec. OSHA 3151-12R)

Hearing Protection

Louder noise level could affect the hearing ability of workers. The hearing protection could protect workers against the hazard of loud noises.

Ear plugs & muffs (Spec. OSHA 3151-12R)

Hearing Protection

All hearing protection devices should have a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR)

Estimated noise exposure = workplace noise level in dBA – NRR

Be conservative when using NRRs

Some examples

Example 1

•Ear plugs with NRR of 25 dBA

•exposure = 105 dBA

•105 minus 25 = 80 dB therefore okay

Example 2

•Same plugs

•exposure = 125 dBA

•125 minus 25 = 100 dB not acceptable; must be below 90 dB

Hearing Protection - Types

Ear Plugs - less expensive, disposable, good ones have fairly high NRRs - sometimes difficult to tell if employees are wearing them

Ear Muffs - more expensive, more durable, typically higher NRRs than plugs, more obvious

Can be used in a very high noise areas

Head Protection

Head protection must be provided at a place where;

• Objects might fall from above and strike on the head.

• chances of bumping of head against fixed objects, such as exposed pipes or beams.

• worker working near exposed electrical conductors.

Hard Hats (Spec. ANSI Z89.1-1986)

Protective Goggle & Shields

Protective goggles and shield should be used against he things that might cause eye and facial injuries that includes the following;

• Dust and other flying particles, such as wool fibers of fluffs.

•Acid and other caustic liquid chemical that might splash.

•Intense light such as that created by welding arcs.

Safety Goggles

Face Shield

Welding Shield

Care of Eye Protection Equipment

Clean your eye protection equipment usually use mild soap and water. Never use abrasive soaps, rough paper, or cloth towels. These items will scratch and damage your equipment.

Always keep your eye protection equipment in good working condition. If it is damaged, have it repaired or replaced.

Store your eye protection equipment in a sanitary, cool, dry area away from moisture.

Read the manufacturer's directions and warnings before using any eye protection equipment.

Care of Respirator

After using your respirator, you should clean and inspect it. As you clean, be sure to look for:

Cracks or chips in the faceplate; Cracks or holes in the breathing tube or airlines Worn or frayed straps; Worn or damaged fittings; Bent or corroded buckles; or Improperly seated valves.

If you find anything wrong with your respirator, have it repaired or replaced immediately.

Respirators & Dust Mask

•Air purifying respirators are the common respirators required in textile industry.

•They clean the air by filtering or absorbing contaminants before the respiratory system.

• Dust mask are used a place where there is hazard of air borne dust and fluffs.
