No single glove offers protection from all chemicals. It is important to obtain the right glove and check it often for degradation. The Safety Office can assist with glove selection. There are numerous safety shoe designs available, so it is important that the right shoe be obtained for the hazards present. Safety toe shoes protect feet from falling or rolling objects, cuts and punctures.
Rubber boots limit exposure to chemicals and provide improved traction on slippery surfaces.
Electrical hazard boots are constructed of non-conductive materials. The Safety Office performs periodic evaluations of areas that may fall under the Institute's Hearing Conservation Program. For more information, check with your supervisor or call the Safety Office.
