Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is an equipment which protects the end-user from injury or hazards at the workplace. The safety gear comprises of different range of products which are differentiated on the basis of their deployment over the human body part. Several industries are actively pursuing the equipment owing to its capabilities to reduce fatalities, which in turn help organizations to limit medical expenses, and worker compensation.
Workers are vulnerable to sustain injuries from electrical, physical, radiological, chemical, mechanical and other associated hazards. The equipment reduces the hazardous impact as it provides a blockade between working environment and the user. Positive regulations and policy framework by regulatory bodies to minimize hazard and avoid fatalities at workplace along with the strict imposition of safety measures is stimulating the industry landscape.
