Are your workers really protected?
Workers in the oil & gas industry face many on-the-job hazards, including flash fire; slick, oily surfaces; sharp edges; punctures; heat contact; uncontrolled pressure release; and exposure to hazardous chemicals, dust and solvents— to name just a few.
Providing workers with the protection they need for the hazards they face is a major responsibility. DuPont Personal Protection has the in-depth knowledge, unparalleled expertise and broad portfolio of PPE solutions to help keep your workers safe.
DuPont PPE solutions are designed to meet or exceed global standards for protection and performance, including National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), ASTM International, Canadian General Standards Board (CGSB), American National Standards Institute (ANSI), International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and China GB National Standards.
To help you in the decision-making process, from risk assessment through implementation, we recommend using the 4P methodology:
