Every day an estimated 1,000 eye injuries occur in the North American workplace. While the financial cost is enormous, no dollar figure can adequately reflect the personal price paid by injured workers.
Not wearing eye protection is obviously dangerous, but most workers do not realize that wearing the wrong kind of eye protection can be just as hazardous.
This means government eyewear standards are required and must be appropriate for the specific hazard encountered.
“Shop floor” education about safety eyewear is a must because injured workers, who did not wear eye protection, usually say they thought protection wasn't necessary.
