Your workers who wear gloves are required to wrap their hands around a wide variety of surfaces — tool handles that can be made of wood, steel, or rubber; and items as varied as corrugated boxes, sheet metal, glass plates, drywall, rebar, ladder rungs, roof shingles, cement blocks, concrete or steel pipes, hot brake pads, traffic cones, lumber, steering wheels, welding torches, braided steel cable and many more.
Plus, these surfaces can be smooth or rough, burning hot, frozen cold, dusty, damp, wet, muddy, coated in crude oil, drilling lubricants, or transmission fluid. All the while, your workers are expected to be in control of their tools, equipment and environment. That is to say, they must have a strong grip on an enormously wide variety of surfaces, with a range of potential surface contaminants, under an array of different environmental conditions. Grip is not just important, it's critical — to your worker's ability to perform their job, their personal safety, and the safety of those around them.
