Document Summary
Ie. formaldehyde wash clothing when you get it to get rid of any excess chemicals that may reside. Protective applications protective clothing is used in a variety of occupations to protect people from a range of different hazards. E. g. re ghting, construction workers, surgical staff protective clothing and equipment pce is also commonly used in sporting applications. Excessive bulky pce for thermal protection for re ghters can create heavy burdens - increase thermal load, and or reduce visibility > increased falls. and increased thermal burden that could lead to heart attacks. hearing and visibility. Thermal hazards - cold to protect against cold: insulation of material is important - thicker fabrics which traps air, layers resistance to wind- barrier which prevents air ow. Mechanical hazards hazards where there is potential for injury occurring due to impact with another object the type, size, speed of that impact can take many forms and is very complex.
