What is PPE Training?

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) includes essential gear such as gloves, helmets, face shields, and respirators, all designed to protect employees from physical, chemical, or biological hazards in the workplace. Whether you’re in healthcare, construction, or manufacturing, PPE plays a critical role in reducing workplace injuries and illnesses.

Under the Personal Protective Equipment at Work Regulations 1992, employers must ensure that employees are properly trained in the safe use, selection, and maintenance of PPE. Failing to meet these standards can result in serious health risks for employees and costly fines for businesses. Our CPD-accredited PPE training course helps businesses stay compliant, reduce risk, and ensure a safer working environment.
