Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

Under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, you have a legal responsibility to make sure your employees are safe at work by providing the right instructions, procedures, training, and sufficient supervision.

A major contributing factor to running a successful and safe business is by supplying your people with adequate PPE to prevent the risk of any harm or injury.

To help you decide what PPE you need to introduce into your business and how to properly manage it, our Health & Safety experts have put together this FREE checklist which will tell you about:

  • The importance of PPE
  • Your legal responsibilities
  • The types of PPE available
  • How to choose the correct PPE for your business
  • And the risk of not having PPE in place

To download your FREE checklist, simply fill out your details in the form opposite.
