Lisäsuojavarusteet
Lisäsuojavarusteet are supplementary protective equipment used in various occupational and recreational settings to enhance safety beyond standard personal protective equipment (PPE). These items are designed to provide an additional layer of defense against specific hazards that might not be fully covered by basic PPE such as helmets, gloves, or safety glasses. Examples of lisäsuojavarusteet can include specialized padding for impact protection in sports, extra shielding for tasks involving high levels of radiation or chemical exposure, or enhanced visibility garments for work in low-light conditions. The selection of lisäsuojavarusteet depends heavily on a thorough risk assessment of the activity or work environment. Their purpose is to mitigate the severity of potential injuries or health effects by addressing unique or elevated risks. Proper training on the use and limitations of lisäsuojavarusteet is crucial for their effectiveness. They are often used in conjunction with other safety measures, forming a comprehensive safety strategy.
