OSHA Standard 1910.132

OSHA Standard 1910.132 requires employers to evaluate workplace hazards and provide appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) to employees, such as gloves, goggles, or masks. This standard ensures workers are protected from potential injuries or illnesses caused by their work environment. Employers must assess risks, select suitable PPE, train workers on its use, and maintain or replace equipment as needed. The goal is to create a safe workplace where employees understand when and how to use PPE effectively, reducing their exposure to workplace hazards.
