Occupational safety
Occupational safety covers the kit you compare before a shift or a job at home: safety shoes, gloves, eye protection, helmets and masks, with workwear and site lights beside them.
Each card is one product type. It shows what the listing prints for class, marking and fit, and which checks still apply when the title changes. These pages do not replace a workplace risk assessment.
