For safety, how often should personal protective equipment (PPE) be inspected?

Daily
Weekly
Monthly
Annually

The correct answer is: Daily

Personal protective equipment (PPE) should be inspected daily to ensure that it remains effective and safe for use. This frequent inspection is crucial because PPE is subject to wear and tear, and factors such as exposure to harsh environmental conditions or improper storage can compromise its integrity. Daily checks help identify any damage, degradation, or improperly functioning gear, allowing for immediate replacement or repair to maintain a safe working environment. While less frequent inspections may be sufficient for some equipment types, daily inspections are essential for PPE due to the potentially severe consequences of using compromised protection on a construction site or similar hazardous environment. Regular checks contribute to a proactive safety culture, emphasizing the importance of protecting workers from injuries or health risks associated with their tasks.
