Personal protective equipment
Personal protective equipment is used to protect persons from adverse effects on safety and health.
Personnel must wear personal protective equipment during the various work activities on and with the
system.
Personal protective equipment is explained below:
Depending on the place of work and the working environment, the protective equipment varies and
must be adapted accordingly. In addition to protective equipment for specific work, the work site may
require other protective equipment ( for example a harness).
In hygiene-protected areas, special or additional requirements of personal protective equipment may
be required. These requirements must be considered when choosing personal protective equipment.
If there is any uncertainty regarding the choice of personal protective equipment, the safety officer
must be consulted at the place of work.

Hearing protection is used to protect the hearing from noise. As a rule of
thumb, hearing protection is compulsory from when normal conversation
with other people is no longer possible.
The head protection serves to protect against falling and flying parts and
materials. It also protects the head from bumping into hard objects.
Protective goggles protect the eyes from flying parts, dust, splinters or
splashes.
Protective gloves are designed to protect hands from friction, abrasions,
punctures or serious injury and from burning caused by contacting hot
surfaces.
Safety shoes protect the feet from crushing, falling parts and slipping on
surfaces. The puncture resistance of the shoes ensures, that pointy
objects do not penetrate the foot.
The high-visibility vest is used to make the personnel stand out and
therefore to be seen. With improved visibility and attention, the high-
visibility vest protects personnel in busy work areas from collisions with
vehicles.
