Personal Protective Equipment
WorkSafe is New Zealand’s primary workplace health and safety regulator.
Every year an estimated 700-900 people die prematurely as a result of work-related ill-health and 50-60 people are killed in work incidents. This is unacceptable. Worksafe has have firm targets and priorities to transform New Zealand’s workplace health and safety performance, including the Government’s target to reduce workplace fatalities and serious injuries by 25% by 2020.
One of the ways to reduce harm, ill health and accidents is to make sure you have the appropriate PPE
Who provides you with PPE and do I have to pay for it ?
The business is required to provide you with PPE
The business is required to provide you with PPE
They must provide you with PPE that: Is right for the work you are doing
fits you reasonably comfortably
works as it’s supposed to.
The business must pay for the cost of PPE (unless you are choosing to provide your own).
The business cannot pass on the cost (in full or part) for providing you with PPE.
Wearing sandals and shorts may be okay at the beach but in a hazardous environment such as construction it will do little to protect you from the environment.
In a workshop we can protect ourselves from harm by using the appropriate PPE. This can be general PPE worn most of the time such as safety glasses or task specific PPE for activities such as welding.
Learn- What is the general Personal Protective Equipment available in the workshop and when do we need to wear it.
Create - Design a digital learning outcome for 13 to 15 yr olds to be safe in the workshop. Do this as if it would be played or shown at the start of the year. Alternatively you can answer the questions on the google doc and copy/paste it onto your blog.
Share - Attach this to a blog post explain what the basic PPE requirements in a workshop at HHS are.
