PPE HAZARD ASSESSMENT FORM
Use and modify this sample form to help you determine what hazards workers are exposed to and what PPE must be worn to protect them.
- If you check YES, determine if the hazard can be eliminated.
- If NO, can the method or equipment be changed to eliminate the hazard?
- If so, consider doing it.
- If the hazard can’t be eliminated, would adding a guard protect employees from the hazard, e.g., machine guards?
- If this is the case, indicate a guard is being installed.
- In the last column, list the type of PPE the worker will be required to use.
