Better Comfort Equals Better Compliance
In the "goods producing" sector of industry, which includes manufacturing, construction, and natural resources and mining, skin diseases/disorders rank as the 2nd leading cause of incidence rates and nonfatal occupational illnesses in 2013 according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.1 Protective apparel is a key factor in improving safety. Yet such garments are only effective if they are worn consistently and matched to the hazards of the job. This protective work wear has been designed to enhance worker comfort and mobility and to potentially boost worker productivity and help improve worker compliance in wearing protective gear. Even in situations where protective work wear is made to employees, some employers encounter problems with worker compliance in wearing the protective gear, commonly due to complaints about lack of comfort and restricted mobility. To address these issues, 3M built in comfort features such as breathabilty to help keep workers cooler on the job and materials that conform to the natural movement of workers.

When Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is Necessary
The US Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Personal Protective Equipment Standard (29 CFR 1910.132) requires employers to conduct a worksite assessment to determine if hazards are present, or are likely to be present, which necessitate the use of personal protective equipment (PPE). When conducting an assessment to determine whether PPE is needed to help prevent skin contact from liquids, there are many factors to consider. Workers handling, dispensing, using, and transporting liquid materials may need skin coverage. The worksite assessment should evaluate each task taking into account such things as whether skin contact may occur, whether it is continuous or intermittent, the nature of the contact (i.e. immersion, pressurized or non-pressurized spray, splash, surface contact, etc), accidental or intentional contact, duration of the exposure and whether the contaminant can be absorbed through the skin.
