What do you call specialized clothing or equipment worn by an employee for protecting against a hazard?

Face mask
Gloves
Personal Protective Equipment
Personal Safety Garments

The correct answer is: Personal Protective Equipment

The term for specialized clothing or equipment worn by an employee to protect against hazards is Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). This designation encompasses a wide range of gear, including items like face masks, gloves, helmets, goggles, and protective clothing, all designed to safeguard the wearer from various risks in the workplace. The use of PPE is crucial in industries such as tattooing, where exposure to bloodborne pathogens, chemicals, and other potential hazards is a concern. While the other options represent specific types of protective gear (like face masks and gloves), they do not encompass the broader category that PPE represents. Personal Safety Garments could refer to a more general idea of protective clothing, but it lacks the formal recognition and regulatory backing that the term Personal Protective Equipment carries. Therefore, understanding and using the term PPE is essential for anyone involved in professions that require safety measures against workplace hazards.
