Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) refers to the specialized clothing and equipment worn by workers to protect themselves from potential hazards in the workplace. PPE acts as the last line of defense against injuries or illnesses that may occur due to exposure to physical, chemical, electrical, or mechanical risks. Common types of PPE include helmets, safety goggles, gloves, ear protection, face shields, safety shoes, and high-visibility clothing. The proper use of PPE helps ensure worker safety, prevent accidents, and maintain compliance with occupational health and safety regulations. Regular inspection, maintenance, and proper training on the correct use of PPE are essential for effective protection.
