2 Page: 2 of 14 I. Purpose The purpose of this policy is to minimize injury to University employees through proper selection, use, and care of personal protective equipment (PPE). II. Scope This Policy applies to all Villanova University personnel, contract personnel and visitors in applicable University facilities and / or operations. It is designed to ensure that individuals receive the correct PPE in the right size or style, understand its use, care, and disposal, and that it is readily available. This Policy addresses eye, face, head, foot, hand and body (torso) protection. Separate programs exist for respiratory and hearing protection and for PPE used for confined space entry, fall protection, and electrical exposures. PPE will be purchased and provided at no cost to employees. III. Definitions EHS: Villanova University Environmental Health and Safety Department Engineering Controls: Methods that are built into the design of equipment or a process to minimize the hazard. Engineering controls are a very reliable way to control worker exposures as long as the controls are designed, used and maintained properly. Hazard Assessment: Process of identifying the hazards associated with defined task and prescribing personal protective equipment and other relevant protection measures which must be employed to reduce the risk from hazards. PPE: Personal Protective Equipment Page 2 of 14

5 Page: 5 of 14 V. Procedure A. EH&S, in conjunction with supervisors, will conduct an initial walk-through survey of each work area to identify sources of work hazards. Each survey will be documented using the Hazard Assessment Certification Form (Section VI). Hazard Assessment forms will be maintained in the EH&S Office. In conducting the surveys, consideration must be given to the elimination of the hazard through engineering controls or substitution of less hazardous materials or processes. The use of PPE will be considered only when other means of protection against the hazard are not adequate or feasible. PPE will be used in conjunction with other controls unless no other means of hazard control exists. B. PPE Selection After hazards have been identified, EH&S will determine the suitability of the PPE available and as necessary select new or additional equipment to adequately protect the user from the identified hazard(s). Affected employees will be informed of the PPE selection and provided PPE by the University at no charge. Careful consideration will be given to the comfort and proper fit of PPE to assure that the right size is selected. If an individual employee has a medical condition which may affect his / her ability to wear the required PPE, or develops a medical condition while wearing PPE, (s)he should contact the Director, EH&S as soon as practicable. C. PPE Use PPE must be inspected prior to and as appropriate during each use for defects such as holes, tears, scratches, signs of material deterioration, cracks, poor closure or any other sign of degradation that might influence performance. PPE with defects should be immediately removed from service and replaced or repaired. Potentially contaminated PPE shall not be worn in offices, lunch rooms, etc. Page 5 of 14

6 Page: 6 of 14 The following requirements apply: Head Protection Hard hats in areas where falling overhead objects, material or electrical installations could present hazards to employees heads Bump caps are not substitutes for hard hats. Eye and Face Protection Protection against impact, particles, chemical splash, molten materials, or flash for face, neck, and eyes. Contact lenses and normal prescription eye glasses are not considered protective. Appropriate eye protection must be worn where eye protection is required. Hand Protection Proper type of glove to protect hands from abrasion, temperature extremes, chemicals, particulates, radiation, or bloodborne pathogens. Foot Protection Sturdy leather shoes with closed toes where objects could present a chemical or physical hazard to the foot. Safety shoes/boots must meet ANSI standards. D. Selection and Use of PPE in Laboratories Specialized PPE requirements are included in the Chemical Hygiene Plan, Bio-safety Protocol or the Radiation Safety Management Plan. Page 6 of 14 E. Cleaning and Maintenance PPE performance depends on proper care: A. PPE should be stored in a manner to protect it from factors that might degrade its performance (sunlight, heat, extreme cold, excessive moisture, chemicals, or dust, and physical distortion). B. PPE repairs may only be conducted by qualified individuals. Contact EH&S for assistance. C. It is important that all PPE be kept clean, particularly for eye and face protection where dirty or fogged lenses could impair vision. D. PPE should not be taken home.

7 Page: 7 of 14 F. Training Any employee required to wear PPE will receive training in the proper use and care of PPE before being assigned to any task requiring the use of PPE. Periodic retraining will be conducted by EH&S to both PPE users and their supervisors. The training will contain, at minimum, the following elements: When PPE in required to be worn. What PPE is required How to properly don, doff, adjust, and wear PPE The limitations of the PPE in use The proper care, maintenance, useful life, and disposal of PPE After the training, the employees will demonstrate that they understand how to use PPE properly, or they will be retrained. Retraining will also be conducted when changes in the workplace render previous training obsolete or changes in the types of PPE to be used render previous training obsolete. The training will be documented, and records maintained in the Office of. These records shall contain the name of each employee trained, the date(s) of the training, name of the trainer, and a syllabus of the training conducted. VI. Related Information/Forms A.
