A couple of months back, one of our clients mentioned that they were reluctant to transfer their safe work procedures to our Safety Management System, because they had a unique system of listing the personal protective equipment (PPE) required at the top of the procedure.  This made for a quick reference and introduced a common element among procedures that could be easily scanned by workers prior to performing the task.

Well as usual, we've taken a client's idea and taken it even further.  The administrator will be provided with 14 PPE pictograms (eye protection, face protection, welder's helmet, head protection, hearing protection, gloves, protective footwear, dust mask, respirator, SCBA, apron, protective clothing, body suit, and high-visibility vest) and checkboxes below each one.  It is simply a matter of selecting the appropriate PPE.  Workers will then see the appropriate PPE pictograms in the Safe Work Procedure.
