Course Aims
This course will provide candidates with the knowledge to understand the legislation surrounding the use of PPE, legal obligations and the safety standards that need to be met for PPE to be effective and safe to use, recognise that PPE is the last choice in the hierarchy of control and must only be used when stated as appropriate in risk assessments, evaluate the different types of PPE, state where it provides protection and understand that PPE can be used in combination as 3 or 5 point protection, understand the need for good maintenance of PPE and then where it can’t be maintained it should be replaced and create effective methods to ensure broken or PPE that needs maintaining is not used.
