Respirators Sample Clauses
The 'Respirators' clause establishes requirements for the provision and use of respiratory protective equipment in the workplace. It typically outlines when respirators must be supplied, the types of respirators appropriate for specific hazards, and the responsibilities of both employers and employees regarding their use and maintenance. By setting these standards, the clause ensures worker safety in environments with airborne contaminants, thereby reducing health risks and ensuring compliance with occupational safety regulations.
Respirators. Employees whose job functions require the use of a half-face respirator will be clean shaven to the extent that no facial hair is present anywhere the respirator seal touches the face when the respirator is properly worn. Employees whose respirator protection needs are met by the use of a hood with supplied air are exempt from this requirement provided their job function never requires the use of a half-face respirator.
Respirators are to be supplied by the Employer when required, and must be on the approved list of NIOSH.
Respirators. Protective hearing devices;
Respirators. Employees working in an environment which requires the mandatory wearing of full protective equipment which includes hood and air line respirator, will be paid an allowance of $2.08 per hour while required to wear such protective equipment.
Respirators ear plugs, rainsuits, coveralls, rubber boots, safety goggles and safety gloves will be provided where required by the Company.
Respirators. All personnel engaged in the removal and demolition of asbestos materials shall utilize respirators equipped with HEPA filters. All respirators shall be approved by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) and shall be selected in accordance with 29 CFR 1926.1101 and 29 CFR 1910.134.
Respirators. A respirator provided by an employer and used by a worker in a Type 1, Type 2 or Type 3 operation,
Respirators. The contractor shall provide respirators based on the hazard encountered. Contractor respirator use will be in compliance with OSHA requirements.
Respirators. Administrative controls and PPE should be implemented after attempts to design out (i.e., eliminate) the hazard and safeguards have been exhausted as required by the RA process. Once all of the above risk reduction measures have been implemented, the question should be asked, “Does this robot application have sufficient measures in place to adequately protect workers?” Collaborative robot applications operate with workers in shared, safeguarded spaces. The following questions should be answered to determine if collaborative operation is necessary, and to what extent:
Respirators. In general the use of respirators should be limited and engineering controls employed to avoid exposure. If respiratory equipment must be worn ensure correct respirator selection and training is undertaken. Remember that some respirators may be extremely uncomfortable when used for long periods. The use of air powered or air supplied respirators should be considered where prolonged or repeated use is necessary.
