The protection gloves and eyewear mandatory from April 2019

AF Gruppen makes the protection gloves and eyewear mandatory from 1 April 2019. By adding protection gloves and -eyewear to our list of mandatory personal protective equipment (PPE) on all work sites we aim to reduce the total number of personnel injuries. Injuries to hands and eyes are among the most frequent injuries at AF. In some cases, protective gloves or eyewear have not been used, while in other cases wrong gloves or eyewear were in use. If the correct type of PPE had been used, a significant number of injuries would probably have been avoided.
