Frequently Asked Questions

  • What does PPE include?

    PPE, or Personal Protective Equipment, covers a wide range of items designed to minimise exposure to workplace hazards. Common examples include safety helmets, goggles, gloves, high-visibility clothing, respirators, hearing protection and protective footwear. In healthcare, PPE also refers to items like masks, gowns and face shields. The specific equipment required depends on the risks present in the work environment.

  • How do I know if PPE meets safety standards?

    Most PPE sold in Australia must comply with recognised safety standards, such as AS/NZS or ISO. These standards ensure equipment has been tested for durability and protection in specific conditions. Labels or product descriptions should clearly state the standard met, for example, AS/NZS 1337 for eye protection. Employers and workers should always check for compliance to make sure the equipment is reliable and legally suitable for use.

  • How often should PPE be replaced?

    The lifespan of PPE varies depending on the type and level of use. Disposable items like masks and gloves should be replaced after each use. Helmets and hard hats typically last up to five years but should be replaced sooner if damaged. Safety glasses, earplugs and respirators should also be regularly inspected and replaced if scratched, worn out or no longer providing adequate protection. Proper cleaning and storage can extend the life of many PPE items.
