1. Do you think protective equipment should be worn by every worker in


the work field?
The main function of the Personal Protection Elements is to protect different
parts of the body, to prevent a worker from having direct contact with risk
factors that can cause injury or illness.
They do not prevent an accident or contact with aggressive elements, but they
help make the injury less serious.
The Personal Protection Element is any equipment or device intended to be
used by the worker, to protect him from risks and increase his safety or health
at work.
PPE includes items such as hard hats, eye protection, high visibility clothing,
safety shoes, safety harnesses, and sometimes respiratory protection.
2. Should a manager use PPE? Why?
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration, requires all employers to protect
employees in the workplace from hazards that can cause injury or illness. Controlling a
hazard and its source is the best way to protect workers.
Personal protective equipment is very important since it allows the worker to prevent
risks at work since this will help reduce the level of severity of the accident, that is why
cazco, steel toe shoes, life line, arnez are used between others.
