Singapore workplace context
Make protective clothing part of risk control
Singapore WSH risk management begins with identifying and reducing hazards. Protective clothing is a supporting control and should be selected for the residual risk that remains after more effective controls are considered.
- Base selection on the risk assessment and Safety Data Sheets
- Provide suitable sizes, fit and freedom of movement
- Check compatibility across the complete PPE ensemble
- Maintain garments in good condition and replace them when necessary
Important: No single garment protects against every hazard. Chemical, flame, heat, arc, cold, rain and visibility risks require different materials and performance standards. Confirm the product documentation and site requirements before use.
