PPE is not new to the engineering or construction world.
Hi Stagger, in my exp in the engineering industry ppe is provided by the company, you should have the knowledge , training and experience to use it, if you don't use it and come to harm you may be liable to be disciplined, if you use it and come to harm because it was not up to the job, you may be able to seek compensation
