22 Aug, 2017 4:19 PM
The simple fact is, if you don't wear safety glasses you are at a higher risk of an eye related workplace injury. Out of all injuries recorded, over 30% are severe enough to require hospital or emergency room visit, which becomes costly to the company through insurance premiums, and loss of time.
At Cretecon, we take occupational safety very seriously and want to ensure that our client's employees use the appropriate eye protection to ensure shielding from flying particles and splashing liquids.
There are numerous types of safety glasses from simple side protection to full protection goggles; vented and non-vented.
When deciding on the types of goggles one should look at these specific factors;
Impact Resistance, Dust Protection, Chemical Protection, Optical Radiation and Heat Protection.
How to keep your safety goggles and glasses clean?
Always clean your glasses after every use. Many safety lenses have special coatings and should be cleaned carefully to ensure no scratches or damage occur.
