Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) gloves play a significant role in industrial plants not only in the fight against COVID-19 but also to protect workers against hand exposure to harmful substances, chemical or thermal burns, electrical dangers, bruises, abrasions, cuts, punctures, fractures and amputations.
Ensuring the health and safety of workers is vital for all industrial plants, no matter the product being manufactured or handled. Hand injuries consistently rank as one of the top types of workplace injuries, resulting in health risks to workers, operational risks to businesses as well as financial risks associated with workers’ compensation claims. In 2018, there were 123,990 hand injuries per the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
