PPE PROGRAM

PDCA + Hierarchy of Control

  • Policies
  • SOP
  • selection, provision,

issuance and maintenance, storage & disposal

  • Risk assessment
  • Training
  • Enforcement of PPE

program and awareness

  • Audit

Challenges Challenges

Man

(Taking short cuts, Thinking that PPE is a hindrance, False sense of security, Discipline in maintaining of PPE)

Management

(Over reliance on PPE rather than other risk controls, Enforcement on the ground, Lack of follow up on PPE effectiveness and program)

Method

(PPE may cause hindrance toward movement and discomfort)

Mother Nature

(Hot climate – Most PPE added additional layer of clothing and lack of ventilation causing body temperature increase)

Material

(Some PPE are not ergonomic in design, Lack of ventilation, Unable to be reused, PPE available provided limited protection towards exposure to hazard.)
