What is a PPW?

PPW typically stands for 'Personal Protective Wear' or 'Personal Protective Workwear.' These are specialized clothing or equipment worn by workers to protect themselves from workplace hazards such as chemicals, physical injuries, or infectious materials. PPWs include items like gloves, helmets, eye protection, and safety shoes. The specific type of PPW required depends on the nature of the job and the risks involved. Employers are usually responsible for providing appropriate PPW and ensuring their proper use.
