Show Notes

In this episode Terry Gorman, 3M's Occupational Hygienist for the Personal Safety Division in Australia and New Zealand joins us to discuss head protection. Head protection refers to an item of PPE known as a hard hat used to protect the skull and its fragile contents, the brain. The hard hat is predominantly used by those who work on busy construction sites and other industrial settings where there is a potential for head injuries from falling, flying or swinging objects, nearby overhead hazards, possible contact with electrical hazards and so much more.
