The Nigeria Institute of Safety Professionals ascertained that personal protective equipment is a statutory equipment because whenever hazard is found to exist in work place, P.P.E only becomes necessary when all others effort to elimination hazard have failed. Personal protective equipment enables workers to work at ease without injury.
It saves life. It acts as the last resort to eliminate hazards when all other efforts have failed.
It reduces the gravity of injury when accident occurs. It does not prevent accident from happening or remove the hazards but can minimize the effect of hazards on workers.
