Subcontractor employees who do not have suitable eye <br />protection will have an appropriate type of eye protection provided to them by their <br />respective employers. <br />Ear Protection <br />Appropriate hearing protection, including ear plugs, canal caps, and ear muffs, will be <br />provided when noise may be a problem, such as around heavy machinery, power support <br />equipment, and impact tools, or whenever normal conversation becomes difficult at <br />distances of 3 feet or less. Employees who may be exposed to hazardous noise must be <br />participants in a hearing conservation program which meets the requirements of <br />CCR§5096-5100 (29 CFR 1910.95). <br />Foot Protection <br />Employees will wear appropriate foot protection while working onsite, which will consist of <br />leather boots with safety toes. Footwear must meet the specifications of ANSI 241.1-1969, <br />which is the standard for industrial footwear with safety toes. <br />Hand Protection <br />Employees will use appropriate hand protection when exposed to hazards that could cause <br />injury to the hands. Gloves must resist puncturing and tearing as well as provide any <br />necessary chemical resistance. <br />Respiratory Protection <br />The use of respiratory protection will only be required for this project if monitoring results <br />indicate elevated levels of contaminants. If appropriate, respirators will be required until air <br />sampling indicates acceptable exposure levels. Respiratory protection will conform to <br />standard PPE requirements.
