Managing risk using PPE
As part of the Embassy risk assessment, you should decide whether PPE is needed.
Use the hierarchy of controls to make this decision.
Hierarchy of controls!!!
PPE should be the last resort to protect against risks. Consider controls in the following order, with elimination being the most effective and PPE being the least effective:
Elimination – physically remove the hazard
Substitution – replace the hazard
Engineering controls – isolate people from the hazard
Administrative controls – change the way people work
PPE – protect the worker with equipment
You must select equipment carefully. Ensure all workers are trained to use it properly and know how to detect and report faults.
