  • Work safely with NS® Grain Leather Driver's Gloves with Keystone Thumb

    Jul 12, 2011

    Safety products are hardly optional in workplaces that contain dangerous equipment. Construction, manufacturing, and many other industries demand that workers wear gloves at all times. After all - hands are one of the most important body parts, and while injuring them is easy, wounded fingers make work nearly impossible.

    Operating heavy machinery often requires intricate maneuvers. Levers need to be pulled, buttons need to pushed, and wheels need to be turned.

  • Disposable ear plugs protect against hearing damage

    Jul 08, 2011

    When you think about workplace safety, the hazards that come to mind will often include noxious chemicals, dangerous machinery, and the threat of electric shock. These are all serious things to be wary of while on the job.

    Most machinery in manufacturing facilities, warehouses, and at construction sites produces noise that can damage hearing. Loud noise is a serious threat to human health because it can do permanent harm. Anyone who has ever listened to loud music will realize that it doesn't take a lot of volume to produce sound-dullness and ringing in the ears. However, what some might not realize is that dullness and ringing represent dying cells, never to return again.

    As a result, it's crucial that employers provide workers at loud workplaces with ear plugs to protect their hearing. Moldex Pura-Fit Uncorded Disposable Ear Plugs, with NRR 33, should be kept on-hand at all times in high-volume situations. Their tapered shape makes for easy insertion and will fit comfortably in any worker's ear.

    Not only is hearing important to workers on the job, but it is also an important part of everyday life outside work.

  • N-Specs® Premium Sideshields make eye glasses a quick and convenient safety device

    Jul 08, 2011

    One of the most fragile parts of the human body is the eye. Our eyes provide us with our most used sense and they can be easily damaged. In work environments that deal with flying debris or particles, the protection of employees' eyes should be a high priority.

    Consequently, goggles, safety glasses, and other types of shields should be standard equipment at factories, construction sites, and other production facilities. Some workers should also be required to wear safety glasses at all times, especially when chipping, grinding, and operating saws and drills.

    Over-the-glass safety glasses can be uncomfortable for some workers that wear prescription glasses. Now, workers with ANSI-approved prescription glasses can add these slip-on sideshields for complete protection. It's important to make sure your workers have adequate protection that's comfortable and ANSI-compliant.

    An excellent choice is N-Specs® Premium PVC Slip-On Safety Sideshields for Eyeglasses. Easily fitting on most spectacles with no tools or extra parts required, these safety shields will give added protection and will meet ANSI requirements when they are worn with ANSI-approved eyewear.

    Jul 07, 2011

In addition to working with machinery and being aware of regulations you have to follow, there are extra steps involved just keeping your employees safe.

    Airborne chemical particulates damage the respiratory system, which explains why a lot of employers require workers to wear face masks, filters, and cartridges. These lifesaving devices help prevent illness and injury.

    Full facepiece respirators can be hot and uncomfortable. It's a small price to pay for your health, but many workers suffer needlessly in hot work conditions.

This model is soft, lightweight, and reduces lens fogging and sweating thanks to a unique center adapter that directs exhaled breath and moisture away from the face. A clear view of one's surroundings and a cool head make hazardous jobs a bit more bearable. Purchase a full facepiece respirator and the other safety products you need to work around chemicals.
