Bump Caps Bump caps do not protect against blows to the head or other serious impacts such as falling objects. Made of light-weight plastic, these hats guard against minor bumps only. Bump caps should never be used in place of hard hats. Bump caps are commonly used when working in confined spaces where there are no serious head hazards. Hair Covers Hair covers made of breathable fabric or lightweight materials are often required when working around machinery.
Hair covers help prevent hair from becoming caught in moving machine parts.
Although these are the most common types of protective headwear, your particular job may require that special safety accessories be added to your basic head protector. To keep your protective headwear in top condition, check it before and after each use. Remember, though, in order for your protective headwear to work, you have to wear it.
