The importance of PPE working together

Discover how a holistic approach to PPE can contribute to 100% wear time

Personal protective equipment (PPE) is the last line of defence and is most effective when worn correctly 100% of the time when exposed to hazards. However, workers rarely encounter a single hazard at a time, which means they often have to wear multiple types of PPE simultaneously.

From fogged safety glasses to disrupted communication, when PPE does not work well together, it can interfere with work. Workers may be tempted to remove PPE in hazardous areas, reducing effective protection.

How can you encourage your employees to wear all their required PPE throughout their entire shift?

This is why 3M introduced the Integrated Protection Programme.

Discover the 3M Integrated Protection Programme now and see how 3M technologies and services work together to encourage consistent use and wear time, and how one or more of the employees' needs are addressed, including comfort, fit, compatibility, communication and performance.
