Safety Training: Advanced PPE Identification and Correct Utilization in Construction

This project will develop clear, practical training materials to help workers and small employers understand how personal protective equipment, or PPE, can prevent injuries and illnesses on the job. The training will explain when PPE is needed, how to choose the right equipment for specific hazards, how to wear and use it correctly, and how to inspect, clean, store, and replace it. Topics will include common workplace protections such as hard hats, gloves, safety glasses, hearing protection, respirators, high-visibility clothing, protective footwear, and fall-protection equipment. The materials will be designed for workers with different levels of safety experience and will use plain language, real workplace examples, visuals, short activities, and simple checklists. The goal is to make PPE training easier to understand, easier to teach, and easier to apply in daily work.
