Research Review: Understanding how fall protection, PPE are managed

How are plant managers and safety experts using how fall protection and personal protective equipment (PPE) in their jobs? Attend this review of a recent research study to learn more.

ATTENDEES ARE ELIGIBLE FOR A CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION.

Safety issues, particularly fall protection and personal protective equipment (PPE), are of chief importance in the manufacturing industry. These measures are crucial in maintaining a safe and productive work environment.

Fall protection systems prevent injuries caused by falls from heights, a common hazard in manufacturing. They include guardrails, safety nets and personal fall arrest systems, which can significantly reduce the risk of severe injuries and fatalities.

PPE such as helmets, gloves and safety glasses protect workers from many different hazards. These include exposure to harmful substances, flying debris and extreme temperatures. By shielding workers from these dangers, PPE helps prevent injuries and illnesses, enhancing worker wellbeing and productivity.

How is the Plant Engineering audience using these types of equipment in their jobs? Attend this overview of a recent research study, and learn about:

  • The key sources of information for the latest PPE and fall protection technologies and products.
  • Whether the fit and comfort of equipment or clothing is working among study participants.
  • The future of equipment and training programs in PPE and fall protection.
