Module 3 · Free · ~17 minutes
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
PPE as the last line of defence: what each item protects (and what it doesn't), selection and fit, care and inspection, and the head-to-toe walk-through every worker should know before their first shift.
What you'll learn
- ✓Why PPE sits at the bottom of the hierarchy of controls
- ✓Head-to-toe: eyes, ears, head, lungs, hands, feet and body protection
- ✓Fit, comfort and compatibility — why badly fitted PPE fails
- ✓Inspection, care, storage and when to replace equipment
- ✓The limits of PPE and when to stop and question the controls

This material supports, but does not replace, the site-specific and legally mandated training required in your jurisdiction. It is awareness-level training built on the shared principles of the South African OHS Act, US OSHA regulations, the EU Framework Directive and ISO 45001 — your site's procedures and local law always take precedence. Regulated competencies (first aid, firefighting, forklift operation, working at heights and similar) require formal, certified, region-specific training.
