In this episode Terry Gorman, 3M’s Occupational Hygienist for
the Personal Safety Division in Australia and New Zealand joins us
to discuss head protection.
Head protection refers to an item of PPE known as a hard hat used
to protect the skull and its fragile contents, the brain. The hard
hat is predominantly used by those who work on busy construction
sites and other industrial settings where there is a potential for
head injuries from falling, flying or swinging objects, nearby
overhead hazards, possible contact with electrical hazards and so
much more.
