Common questions
Is PPE always the first control?
No. Good practice prefers eliminating or controlling hazards at source. PPE supports those controls.
Does one glove type fit every job?
No. Chemical, cut, heat and general handling risks need different protection. Match PPE to the hazard.
Are these IOSH courses?
No. Independent professional certificates—not IOSH or NEBOSH awards.
