| 1081.01 | Every employer shall at his own expenses furnish his workers with protective equipment for the eyes, face, hands and feet, protective shields and barriers whenever necessary by reason of the hazardous nature of the process or environment |
| 1081.02 | all protective equipment shall be of approved design and construction appropriate for the exposure and the work to be performed |
| 1081.03 | the employer shall be responsible for the adequacy and proper maintenance of personal protective equipment used in his workplace |
| 1081.04 | no personal shall be subjected or exposed to hazardous environmental condition without protection |
| Safety hat | is a device that provides head protection against impact from falling objects and protection against electrocution. |
| Class "A" or "G" | in additional to impact and penetration resistance, provide electrical protection form low voltage conductors proof tested to 2200 volts |
| Class "B" or "E" | in addition to impact and penetration resistance provide electrical protection from high voltage conductors proof tested to 20,000 volts |
| Class "C" | provide impact and penetration protection but does not provide electrical insulation |
| 1082.02 | According to Rule ____, "Eye and face protective equipment shall conform to the following minimum requirements" |
| Safety spectacles or glasses | primary protective devices intended to shield the wearer's eyes from flying and striking objects, glare, and injurious radiation hazards |
| Goggles | are primary protective devices intended to fit the face immediately surrounding the eyes |
| Face shields | intended to shield the wearer's face, or portions thereof from striking objects, or chemical, heat, and glare hazard |
| Arm's Length Rule | if two people have to raise their voices or shout to be heard over a distance or less than an arm's length from each other, the sound level is potentially hazardous |
| Hearing protection | the prevention of excessive noise exposure is the only way to avoid hearing damage |
| Earplugs | devices placed inside the ear to blockout noise. To work effectively, they should snugly into the ear canal |
| Earmuffs | a device composed of a headbank with two cushioned ear cups that form a seal aroundd the outer ear, covering it completely and locking out the noise |
| Respiratory protection | is required when engineering improvements and administrative controls can't elimite the risk |
| Contaminants | which are divided into four types, gaseous, particulate, combination of gaseous and particulate and oxygen deficiency |
| Gaseous contaminants | includes gases and vapors |
| Particulate contaminants | include dust, fumes, mist, fog, and smoke |
| Combination contaminants | usually consist of gaseous materials and particulates and result from operations such as paint spraying |
| Oxygen-deficient atmospheres | are those that have less than 19.5 percent by volume |
| Particulate respirators or mechanical filters | screen out dust, fog, fumes, mist spray, or smoke. such filters need to be replaced at frequent intervals |
| Chemical cartridge devices | remove contaminants by passing the contaminated air through materials that traps the harmful portions |
| Self-contained | are those where the air supply is easily transportable and they protect against toxic gases and lack of oxygen. |
| Supplied-air respirators | get air through an airline or hose. The breathable air is supplied by an air compressor or uncontaminated ambient air |
| Hand and arm protection | is required when workers' hands are exposed to hazards such as harmful substances that can be absorbed by the skin, severe cuts, or lacerations, severe abrasions, chemical burns, thermal burns, and temperature extremes |
| Gloves | are often relied upon to prevent cuts, abrasion, burns, and skin contact with chemicals that are capable of causing local or systematic effects following dermal exposure |
| Metal mesh leather or canvas gloves | provide protection against cuts, burns, and sustained heat |
| Fabric and coated fabric gloves | these gloves are made of cotton or other fabric to provide varying degrees of protection |
| Chemical and liquid-resistant gloves | gloves made of rubber, plastic, or synthetic rubber-like materials such as neoprene protect workers from burns, irritation, and dermatitis caused by contact with oils, greases, solvents, and other chemicals |
| Conductive shoes | protect against the buildup of static electricity or equalize the eletrical potential between personnel and the ground. These shoes should be worn only for the specific task(s) for which they are designed, and should be removed at task completion and not |
| Electrical hazard safety shoes | are nonconductive and protect against open circuits of 600 volts or less under dry conditions |
| Fall or travel restraint system | is an assembly composed of body belt and proper accessories that prevent a worker from travelling to an edge where the occurrence of a fall may happen. |
| Fall arrest system | are designed to minimize stress forces on an employee's body in the event of a fall, while providing sufficient freedom of movement to allow work to be performed. |
| Torso/Full Body Protection | must be provided for employees if they are threatened with bodily injury of one kind or another while performing their jobs |
| Paper-like fiber | disposable suits made of this material provide protection against and splashes |
| Treated wool and cotton | adapts well to changing workplace temperatures and is comfortable as well as fire-resistant |
| Duck | this closely woven fabric protects employees against cuts and bruises while they handle heavy, sharp, and rought materials |
| Leather | leather protective clothing is often used against dry heat and flame |
| Rubberized fabrics, neoprene, and plastics | protective clothing made from these materials protect against certain acids and other materials |
| Maintenance program | all equipment must be inspected periodically before and after use |
| 1080 | requires employers to provide appropriate PPE to workers. |
