1. Introduction to PPE

• Definition and role of PPE in occupational risk prevention.
• Regulatory importance and legal obligations for employers and employees.

2. Technical Characteristics of PPE

• Protective helmets: materials, shock resistance, certification standards.
• Safety gloves: types (cut‑resistant, thermal, chemical), selection criteria.
• Safety footwear: anti‑perforation soles, protective toecaps, anti‑slip features.
• Goggles and visors: protection against projections, radiation, dust.
• Respiratory protection devices: filters, masks, cartridges for gases or particles.

3. Use of PPE

• Best practices for fitting and maintenance.
• Service life and storage conditions.
• Limitations of effectiveness and complementarity with collective protection.

4. Practical Application: PPE Sizing and Selection

• Risk analysis: identifying specific hazards (mechanical, chemical, electrical, biological, falls from height).
• Constraint evaluation: comfort, ergonomics, compatibility with other equipment.
• Selection tools: presentation of a grid or software for choosing PPE adapted to the job role and risk level.
• Case studies: practical scenarios with PPE selection for different environments (construction site, laboratory, industrial workshop).
