Can PPE be selected based upon the types of exposure that are reasonably anticipated?

Yes, PPE can be selected based upon the types of exposure that are reasonably anticipated.

When selecting PPE, it is important to consider the potential hazards and risks associated with the work environment and the tasks being performed. This includes identifying the types of contaminants, chemicals, or other hazardous materials that may be present, as well as the potential for physical hazards such as sharp objects, extreme temperatures, or machinery. Based on this assessment, appropriate PPE can be selected to provide protection against these specific hazards and exposures.
