Ergonomics encompasses the processes of making workstations, tools, equipment, and job techniques compatible with workers to reduce the risk of work-related musculoskeletal injuries.
Did You Know? • More than one million workers suffer back injuries each year* • Back injuries account for one of every five workplace injuries or illnesses* • Low back injuries represent over 90% of all injury claims** • Knee pain often directly correlates with back pain* • Knees are the second most commonly injured body part resulting in one or more days away from work*
PREVENT WORK INJURIES
* Bureau of Labor Statistics**Occupational Safety and Health Administration
Ergonomic SupportPERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Provide proper back and knee pad support to reduce ergonomic stressors that may injure workers, reducing productivity and revenue for your business.
Back Belts Can Help: • Counter forces on the spine by increasing intra-abdominal pressure.
• Stiffen the spine.
• Restrict bending motions (range of motion).
• Remind the user to lift properly.
Knee Pads Provide Support When: • Operating controls
• Holding/kicking objects into place
• Kneeling
• Squatting
• Crawling in confined spaces

Eye ProtectionPERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
CHOOSE THE RIGHT EYEWEAR
Over 2,000 eye injuries occur each day in the American workplace, yielding more than $3 million wasted due to lost production time, medical expenses, and worker’s compensation costs, 10 to 20 percent of the total eye injuries cause temporary or permanent vision loss. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that 90 percent of eye injuries are preventable through the use of safety eyewear. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires employers to ensure that each employee uses the appropriate ANSI Z87.1-compliant eye protection when exposed to eye hazards, including:
Assess vision hazards by four categories:
IMPACT • Durability – to withstand high-impact contact and long-lasting use.
• Scratch-Resistance – to ensure uninhibited vision and cleanliness.
• Side Shields - Protect against hazards from all directions.
• Tight Fit - Protect against airborne hazards, such as dust and debris.
SPLASH/AIRBORNE PARTICLES
FIT • Prescription lenses – Ensure prescription lenses and safety wear do not inhibit each other.
• Face Contour – for comfort and appropriate safety.
• User Preference – Style and comfort for more willing compliance.
OPTICAL RADIATION
• Filter lens shade number appropriate for level of injurious light radiations.
• Acids or caustic liquids • Chemical gases or vapors
• Flying particles • Liquid chemicals

Hand ProtectionPERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
CHOOSE THE RIGHT GLOVEThe American National Standard Institute (ANSI)/International Safety Equipment Association (ISEA) developed a national standard, that rates hand protection performance by evaluating levels of mechanical protection, chemical protection, and other performance characteristics. Using these characteristics, workers can choose the right glove material, comfort level, and mobility for the task.
The higher the ANSI rating, the higher the protection. ANSI 4 / 3 / 4 / 3
ABRASION CUT TEAR PUNCTURE
Hand injuries account for more than one million emergency room visits by workers per year in the United States, resulting in millions of dollars in lost revenue for employers. To protect working hands, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) hand protection standard mandates employers select and require appropriate hand protection for their employees if they are exposed to the following conditions:
• Skin absorption of harmful substances• Severe cuts or lacerations • Severe abrasions or punctures
• Chemical or thermal burns • Harmful temperature extremes

COMBAT NOISE-INDUCED HEARING LOSS IN THE WORKPLACE
Hearing ProtectionPERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Hearing loss is the third leading major public health issue affecting 48 million Americans each year, with 60% of those affected in the workforce or educational settings. One of the top offenders causing hearing loss is workplace noise pollution, oftentimes leading to noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL). According to National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), over-exposure to noise yields auditory and non-auditory effects, including:
The most convenient and important solution, yet too commonly overlooked, is using hearing safety devices. It is estimated that almost all instances of occupational hearing loss could have been prevented through the use of the proper ear protection.
When choosing hearing protection for each employee, consider all of the following factors:
• Temporary/mild/permanent hearing loss• Ringing in the ears • Physical and/or mental stress • Reduced concentration and communication • Loss of productivity
• Type of noise• Time spent in noise environment • Type of work
• Increased probability of work-related injury• Heart palpitations • Aggressive behavior • Exhaustion

Disposable Masks & Respirators
Working in areas with potentially harmful airborne particles requires special protection for employees to prevent injury, disease, and even death. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires respiratory protection that complies with its standards be available in any workplace that cannot contain or control air contaminates, including harmful dust, smoke, fumes, gases, vapors, and mists. Respirators come in half-mask and full-face coverage. Selecting the right type is important to achieve an appropriate level of protection based on the intended work conditions.

Inclement weather can be more than an inconvenience to your workforce; it can present a serious safety hazard. Rain can obscure vision, which may lead to accidents with work equipment and vehicles. Rain intrusion can chill and soak your workers, impeding their tasks and placing themselves and others at risk. Rainwear helps keep workers protected and comfortable when the weather conditions change. With safety gear, three factors are important to consider in selecting the right option: weatherproof protection, fit, and comfort.
