Personal Protective Equipment in Construction (1 credit hours/1 HSW Hours)
This course covers personal protective equipment (PPE). Controlling a hazard at its source is the best way to protect employees, but when work practice and administrative controls are not feasible or do not provide sufficient protection, employers must provide PPE to their employees and ensure its use. Examples of PPE include such items as gloves, foot and eye protection, protective hearing devices (earplugs, muffs), hard hats, respirators and full body suits. 
 
This course will help contractors understand the types of PPE; know the basics of conducting a “hazard assessment” of the workplace; select appropriate PPE for a variety of circumstances; and understand what kind of training is needed in the proper use and care of PPE.
