Selection & compliance guidance

PPE selection should begin with the identified hazard and actual work conditions, not simply a product type. Fit, compatibility with other PPE, duration of use and applicable workplace requirements all matter.

ProfTek can assist with product information and selection pathways. The employer or responsible safety professional remains responsible for workplace risk assessment, required controls and regulatory compliance.

Hazard and taskStart with the exposure, work activity and consequence.

Fit and usabilityConsider sizing, comfort, movement and duration of wear.

Combined protectionConfirm that multiple PPE items remain compatible together.

DocumentationReview product specifications and applicable workplace requirements.
