Personal Protective Equipment: your safety in the school sector

Your safety is our priority.

In every work environment, and particularly in the school context, protecting the health and safety of students and staff is a fundamental value. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) represents the first line of defense against risks present in schools, ensuring effective and comfortable protection for those who work in laboratories, workshops and during practical activities.

PPE: an investment in your health

PPE is not a simple accessory, but a real investment in the health and well-being of all. Choosing the right PPE means preventing injuries, illnesses and long-term damage, protecting the health of students and workers, and ensuring a safe and efficient learning environment.

A PPE for every risk

There are different types of PPE, each designed to protect against specific risks in the school context:

• Protective helmets: to protect the head during laboratory activities or practical exercises.
• Protective glasses: to safeguard eyesight during chemical experiments or manual work that may generate splinters or dust.
• Earing protection: to protect hearing during activities that produce loud noises, such as in technology or music laboratories.
• Respiratory masks: to filter contaminated air in environments where chemicals are used or in the case of activities with dust.
• Work gloves: to protect your hands during practical activities, such as laboratory work or handling materials.
• Protective clothing: to protect your body from chemicals or in emergency situations, such as fires or explosions.

Choosing the right PPE

Choosing the right PPE depends on several factors, including the type of activity carried out, the risks present in the school environment and the specific needs of students and teachers. It is important to consult with school staff, competent doctors or safety experts to identify the PPE that best suits the needs of the context.

Use PPE correctly

In addition to choosing the right PPE, it is essential to use it correctly to ensure maximum protection. Following the manufacturer's instructions, wearing PPE appropriately and maintaining it in good condition are essential for effective use, especially in a dynamic environment such as school.

PPE: a duty for everyone

The use of PPE is a duty for everyone, under the regulations on occupational safety and health in schools. School staff are required to provide students and collaborators with adequate PPE and train them on its correct use, ensuring a safe and protected learning environment.

Choose the right PPE and protect your safety at school.
