Employees must understand what about PPE?

Understanding how to use personal protective equipment (PPE) and its purpose is crucial for ensuring safety in the workplace. Employees need to be trained on the specific types of PPE they will use, as well as the correct procedures for putting it on, wearing it properly, and removing it. This knowledge not only helps to prevent injuries but also emphasizes the importance of PPE in protecting against various hazards found in construction environments.

Additionally, being aware of the purpose of each piece of PPE enhances employees' ability to recognize when it is necessary to wear specific equipment, promoting a culture of safety. The fundamental goal of PPE training is not only to comply with OSHA regulations but also to empower employees to take personal responsibility for their safety and health while performing their duties.
