Sarah Broadbent : 3M Occupational Health & Environmental Safety
Hearing Protection Real World Attenuation and Derating
There is much discussion of the various methods of derating hearing protectors to take account of "real world" attenuation. This presentation will review all the factors to enable you to come to a rational decision.

Ian Samson: Territory Manager UK & Ireland Training Specialist (EMEA), Dupont Personal Protection
Dressing and Undressing Procedures for Chemical Clothing with other PPE
The presentation will look at how to dress and undress (Donning and Doffing) chemical protective coverall while wearing other PPE. Other PPE can be gloves, footwear, respirators and half and full face masks .When dressing, it is important to dress in the correct order in a safe environment and to check that all is correct before proceeding into the working environment. After leaving the working environment, it is now more important to undress safely as you may be contaminated from the work place and you do not want to be exposed to chemical or dusts when undressing. Following simple steps, it can be shown how to minimise this and also in what order should the PPE removed.
13:15 – 14:00
Ansell Occupational Healthcare
The importance of protecting hands from chemical risks in maintenance jobs
Workers performing maintenance duties in industries such as automotive, OEM, metal, chemical, etc. are often unaware that substances like oil, solvents, mastics, etc. are chemicals that can cause skin irritation and allergies. A dedicated hand protection solution that seamlessly combines chemical protection and dexterity/tactility is therefore a must to protect the hands against these and many other hazards during maintenance applications. Based on deep industry insight and hand protection expertise and experience, Ansell can help companies select the most appropriate solutions from its wide glove range, thus improving both safety and productivity while cutting costs.
