Description
International standards identify “Inadequate equipment availability, suitability, (and) reliability” as a psychosocial hazard. OSHA requires personal protective equipment to be “provided, used and maintained in a sanitary and reliable condition.” The word reliable means “suitable or fit to be relied on.” However, it’s difficult to feel safe, rely upon, or trust PPE that doesn’t fit. The guest for this episode Amy Roosa is the founder of Iowa Women in Safety and “The Safety Rack.” She’s a tireless advocate for women in the trades, and women in safety, with a specific focus on PPE for women.
