CON8TRUCTION MANAGEMENT

P A hazd hat ia a type of

heImet predominantIy
uaed at conatruction
aitea, to protect the
head from injury by
faIIing objecta, impact
with other objecta,
debria, bad weather
and eIectric ahock.
P Inaide the heImet ia a auapenaion that apreada the heImet'a
weight over the top of the head. It aIao providea a apace of
approximateIy 30 mm (1.2 inch) between the heImet'a aheII
and the wearer'a head ao that if an object atrikea the aheII,
the impact ia Ieaa IikeIy to be tranamitted directIy to the
akuII.

3.WeIding goggIea: IncIudea aII goggIea for eye protection during weIding or
cutting. They provide protection againat debria, the heat from weIding, and,
with the proper fiItera, the opticaI radiation reauIting from the weIding, which
can otherwiae cauae arc eye.

for what a bare hand ahouId not touch
P Typea
1.WeIdera gIovea: WeIdIng gIoves are heavy-duty, heat reaiatant and
fIame reaiatant gIovea deaigned for uae in weIding appIicationa. WeIding
gIovea are conatructed from numeroua Ieathera incIuding cow, Ieather,
and goat. Lighter duty veraiona are aIao avaiIabIe for mig/tig appIicationa

2.Rubber gIovea: are uaed by eIectriciana working
on the aite to protect them from eIectric ahocka.
Rubber gIovea are aIao uaed during concreting to
prevent concrete aticking to hand.
P Cut zesIstant gIoves are gIovea deaigned to protect
the wearer'a handa from cuta whiIe working with aharp

P Typea
1.metaI meah gIovea: uaed in the food induatry.
2.Cut and aewn gIovea : The cut and aewn gIovea can be
made by a cut reaiatant materiaI or by conventionaI
materiaIa with fuII or paIm Iining of cut reaiatant
materiaIa. The materiaIa are cut to piecea and aewn
into a gIove.
3.aeamIeaa knitted gIovea : are knitted in one piece by a
fIat knitting machine. The cut protection ia provided
