Let’s all
PPE – TASK SPECIFIC get home safely,
every day

Eye protection must be worn
as stipulated within the risk
assessment, task briefing or
tool providers guidance /
instructions. This will often be
different from the standard
safety glasses issued such as
impact protection goggles.
Hearing protection is to be worn
based upon risk assessment.
Signage will be placed on site or 1m
when using noisy tools / plant. If
you can not hold a normal
conversation 1m apart, then you
need to consider hearing
protection.
All operations generating dust must be risk assessed. For any operations generating
silica dust, operatives must wear FFP3 masks. Operatives must be clean shaven and
be face fit tested prior to issue of the mask. Filters must be exchanged monthly or if
breathing through the mask becomes difficult. NO paper masks are to be used on
John F Hunt projects.
