Eye Protection (How to Identify Substandard Safety Goggles)
The eye is a very vital human organ which must be protected with caution.
At the workplace, there are situations that pose hazards to employees.
Such situations include the following:
a. working with a bright monitor or laptop
b. Not wearing safety goggles when hammering, sandblasting, and welding.
To avoid developing an eye problem in the future, it’s important for you to learn how to regulate the light intensity of your monitors and laptops to prevent your retina from being badly affected.
Also endeavour to ensure that suitable safety goggles are provided to personnel who are undertaking hammering, sandblasting or welding tasks.
Finally, it is important to know that there are substandard safety goggles on the market. To avoid purchasing such inferior goggles, check to see that the goggles have ANSI and Z-87 stamp on them. If they do not have such stamps, you will be risking your precious eyesight by using such inferior products.
