Personal Protective Equipment at Work Regulations 1992

Provisions the documents cite: regs 4, 6, 7 and 10 (provision, assessment, maintenance and use of PPE), as amended 2022; reg 9 (information, instruction and training)

What it requires

PPE is provided where a risk cannot be adequately controlled by other means, is suitable and assessed, maintained and replaced, and its users are instructed and use it properly; the 2022 amendment extends the duty to limb (b) workers.
