Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is to be worn on site at all times. 

We operate a standard 5 point PPE as minimum compliance. 

If the correct PPE is not worn you may face disciplinary actions. 

​

Areas within site may be set up for different PPE requirements, such as hearing protection zones, for high noise areas or fire-retardant coveralls for hot works, or impervious gloves for handling chemicals. Specific requirements will be sign posted as required and any displayed information should be adhered to at all times. 

​

The standard 5 points for PPE are as follows: 

​

1) Hardhat 

Maximum of three years old and not decorated with stickers or graphics unless specifically designed to be placed on hardhats. 

​

2) Glasses 

Free from deep or severe scratches and worn at all times, not dangling around the neck or placed on top of hardhats. 

​

3) Hi-visibility vest 

Twin stripe around the waist and worn correctly, not knotted at the sides or cut at the bottom. 

​

4) Protective gloves 

Task specific where required. Free from damage or alterations, such as cut off fingers. 

​

5) Steel toe and mid-sole lace up safety boots 

In good condition, with no excessive damage or fraying to the material, compliant with EN ISO 20345.
