Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) plays a crucial role in safeguarding workers from workplace hazards and preventing occupational injuries and illnesses. In healthcare settings, PPE serves as a frontline defense against infectious diseases, providing a barrier between healthcare workers and potentially infectious materials. The use of PPE, such as gloves, masks, and gowns, is essential during patient care activities that may involve exposure to blood, bodily fluids, or respiratory droplets. Additionally, in industrial environments, PPE protects workers from chemical splashes, airborne particulates, and other occupational hazards that may pose risks to their health and safety. Proper selection, fit, and use of PPE are paramount to ensure its effectiveness in mitigating risks and preventing injuries. Moreover, regular assessment, training, and compliance with PPE protocols are critical to fostering a culture of safety in the workplace and promoting the well-being of workers across various industries and sectors.
