Factories and production units are places where majority of the process is labour intensive; the vulnerability of the workers is higher to accidents and major/minor mishaps. While working in such places, it is important that the labourers and other manpower is protected with the necessary protective gear. Widely known by the acronym PPE, Personal Protective Equipment is the most important and a rather compulsory discipline every site worker should maintain.

Here are the basic PPE that every site worker or supervisor must have:
Helmet: A helmet is as we all know by now, is a headgear to protect our skulls from any object falling from great heights or any incoming big/small size objects in the vertical or horizontal motion.
Safety goggles: Small things of great importance, safety goggles are a mandatory possession because on the site, there are a lot objects being beaten, cut, pounded etc. which could lead to small pieces of the objects flying out which could hit out eyes with great force and could cause permanent blindness in the extreme cases.
Gas mask: While working in mines, chemical factories etc. where there is a lot of toxicity or dust in the air, working with gas mask on is a must. Not using them might cause respiratory troubles and reactions/allergies in case a worker is prone to them.
Safety vest: A safety vest is usually bright fluorescent coloured jacket worn on the site. It ensures the worker to be visible so that that the worker doesn’t become the victim of a human run machinery. Also, there are reflector strips that enhance the user’s visibility in darker areas or night times for the same purpose.
Gloves: While working around machinery or equipment that require the application of hands but are equally dangerous, like welding, cutting, carpentry etc. hand gloves keep the hands extremely safe.
Safety shoes: There is not stepping out without the safety shoes. Walking on undulated areas, swampy or marshy lands or even places full of tools around that could easily hurt out feet surely require the usage of the safety helmet.
