    PPE PPE is the only effective means of controlling the risks of injury or ill health.

    Employers must assess the work being undertaken and the environment in

    which their employees will work wears the appropriate PPE to be worn.Example: - A typical construction/building site may require workers to wear aHard Hat, Coveralls, Safety Footwear, Gloves, Eye Protection and HighVisibility Vest.

    Main Contractors must check that all subcontractors are conforming by

    providing PPE for all their employees.

    Risk Assessments must also highlight any additional PPE requirement from theabove example depending on the particular hazards so that appropriate PPE isissued.

    Employees should be made aware of their responsibility to wear the PPEappropriately, take care of equipment and report any defects. They should alsobe informed that if they do not wear or misuse any PPE that has beenappropriately issued that this could lead to disciplinary action. This equipment isprovided for their protection.

    Ear ProtectionHearing protectors reduce the noise exposure level and the risk of hearing loss.

    People should wear a hearing protector if the noise or sound level at theworkplace exceeds 75 decibels (A-weighted) or dB(A). (This will be informed by

    your supervisor)

    Types of hearing protectors

    Ear plugs are inserted to block the ear canal. They may be premolded(preformed) or moldable (foam ear plugs). Ear plugs are sold as disposableproducts or reusable plugs. Custom molded ear plugs are also available.

    Semi-insert ear plugs which consist of two ear plugs held over the ends of the

    ear canal by a rigid headband.

    Ear muffs consist of sound-attenuating material and soft ear cushions that fitaround the ear and hard outer cups. They are held together by a head band.
