By law, workers must use personal protective equipment in the workplace when it is required. Employer responsibilities include providing instruction on what PPE is needed, maintenance and cleaning of the equipment, and educating and training workers on proper use of PPE. In every jurisdiction, it is clear that the employer is responsible for making sure these requirements are met.
Hazard assessments are required under OSHA regulations for deciding what personal protective equipment controls may be needed for hazards on the job. A literal reading would even suggest that they be completed for work tasks that may not require the use of personal protective equipment.t is also recommended that the selected PPE be used on a trial basis to determine user acceptability, job limitations and effectiveness. Training is also required under the standard for PPE. This training should be based on the selection, the hazard and what to do in the event of a failure or emergency.
