Not All Hand Protection Is Created Equal

Table of Contents Introduction

No glove is one-size-fits-all. It takes a profound understanding of each application to make the best decision for which safety glove is the right one for the job. While there may be a fair amount of overlap in the hand protection needs of most industries, understanding the types of hazards that are more specifically bound to some industries than others can guard your employees against severe hand injuries. No matter which industry you need hand protection solutions for, goSafe has partnered with vendors like Ansell and PIP to help you and your safety manag - ers understand the attributes of their lines of hand protection and which gloves will best protect your workers, prioritize safety, and increase productivity throughout your facilities. This guide is meant to steer you in the right direc - tion in your search for the perfect glove and provide a point of reference for performing suitability tests appropriate for the safety products in your appli - cation and environment. All users should be made aware that no amount of safety gear can take the place of a solid safety education and the exercising of safe practices. Contact goSafe for assessments or training in your facility, we’d be happy to help. Employers owe it to their workers to get hand pro - tection right every time. That’s not their job, it’s ours - and we own that responsibility. At goSafe, we believe that safety is more than a commodity. The very well-being of your workforce depends on com - pliance. Equip them with the best products in the world.
