Safety & Training Short: Head Protection

Objective: To familiarize employees with common types of head protection and best practices for their use.

The brain is the control center of your body. If it’s damaged in any way, your entire body will be at risk! Normally, your skull protects your brain from injury, but when falling or flying objects are a hazard, additional protection must be worn.

Common Hazards that Require Head Protection
Workplace hazards that could cause injury to the head include:

• Falling objects
• Contact with protruding or fixed objects
• Contact with electrical hazards
