Personal Protective Equipment 2002 (PPE)

What is Personal Protective Equipment?
PPE is a device or an appliance that is designed to we worn or even held at the work place for protection, for example shin pads in football.

An example of PPE in our sports centre, when playing rugby on the grass we need to make sure all clients have the correct footwear, and you will also need a gum shield. If one of the clients didn't have the correct equipment and then he hurt himself he could the sue the sports centre. So before each client goes outside to play rugby there should be 2-4 employees checking that everyone has the correct footwear and a gum shield.

'PPE is defined in the Regulations as ‘all equipment (including clothing
affording protection against the weather) which is intended to be worn or
held by a person at work and which protects him against one or more risks to
his health or safety’, eg safety helmets, gloves, eye protection, high-visibility
clothing, safety footwear and safety harnesses.'

    Nothing remain forever. Then why to keep same patter of work again and again. Why to repeat same strategy for very essay. Use differ strategy for different subjects because every subject has its own meaning. Keep such posts on.
