Abstract Proper evaluation and selection of personal protective
equipment (PPE) is a key component of workplace health and safety. While PPE
should never represent the first option for hazard mitigation, it is important
to know when PPE is appropriate for a given scenario and what kind to use. This
article discusses employer responsibilities regarding PPE evaluation and offers
guidance on key selection considerations for PPE commonly used in the brewing
environment. This article also provides tips and tricks for successful
implementation of the PPE policy, including how to ensure buy-in through
employee inclusion and periodic review.
