The document assesses potential workplace hazards and the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) to address each hazard.

The document assesses hazards for the eyes, face, head, hands/arms, feet/legs, body/skin, body/whole, lungs/respiratory system, and ear/hearing.

For each body area, the document considers the work activities, potential exposures, and whether the hazard can be eliminated without PPE. If not, it recommends appropriate PPE options.

Instructions for completing the PPE Hazard Assessment Certification


This tool assists in identifying hazards associated with jobs/tasks that a Diversey employee may perform. The tool helps to identify appropriate PPE
to be used while performing the associated jobs/tasks.
1. Do a walk through survey of each work area and job/task. Put a check or X next to the activities performed in the first column and add
activities not listed.
2. Put a check or X next to the exposure(s) in the second column
3. Decide the best way to control the hazard. Engineering controls to eliminate or minimize the hazard are always preferable. Administrative
controls such as job rotation are next preferable. If the hazard cannot be eliminated or minimized to an acceptable level without using PPE,
indicate which type of PPE will be required to protect employees from the hazard. Put a check or X next to each PPE required for the task,
based on the hazards identified.
4. Be sure that the header is completed with all information listed.
