Regulations welcomed
03 June 2015
When Seton conducted a study to gain a deeper understanding of PPE from a customer perspective. Ensuring PPE is in good, serviceable condition was ranked the second most important factor in PPE management due to the impact on employee safety.
To tackle the growing problem of fake and illegal products being manufactured and sold within the PPE industry revisions to the current European PPE Directive (89/686/EC) have been proposed, a development that Seton fully supports.
The new legislation would make retailers and distributors responsible for ensuring products they sell meet the required safety standards, rather than the responsibility falling solely on the manufacturer.
