This webinar will provide a general overview of hand protection with a focus on how to select the proper cut and chemical protective gloves for your needs. This training will also highlight key pain points users may experience with hand protection, and we'll provide solutions to solve for those challenges.

Sponsored by: Honeywell

This webinar is designed to examine the common challenges of Heat & Cold Stress prevention programs. We’ll also unpack the important Product Attributes that help create solutions to these challenges, with an emphasis on Ergodyne Solutions. You will learn how to navigate a Heat/Cold Stress concerns with Ergodyne's solution based training.

Presented by Allie Thunstrom Field Product Manager at Ergodyne.

Oil and gas workers face a variety of upstream hazards while on the job. Chemicals used in the drilling process can pose a risk of exposure, and impact hazards are present when working with heavy machinery or pipes. Flash fires can occur when flammable gases are released during production, and exposure to extreme temperatures can lead to fatigue, heat stroke, or frostbite. Cut hazards are also present when handling tools. In addition, falls and drops are a significant hazard on drill rigs, which are often over 13 feet high.

Most of these hazards can be minimized through the use of proper PPE and working procedures. However, accidents can still happen, so it is important for workers to be aware of the dangers and know how to protect themselves.

The purpose of this webinar is to give the viewer:

• an overview to some of the most common hazards associated with the Upstream and Downstream Oil & Gas Markets

• an understanding of the most common challenges related to hand and body protection PPE programs in both markets

• an understanding of how your partnership with Ansell and their ability to utilize AnsellGUARDIAN® as a solution can help solve common PPE program problems.

The oil and gas industry is one of the highest risk sectors for eye injuries due to dust, chemicals, welding sparks, or windy weather. Don't forget about the sun that can also give off intense glare which distracts more than helps when working outside.

In this webinar we will cover many of the hazards to keep an eye out for and outline the steps you can take to reduce your risk of eye injuries.

Learning Objectives:

1. Understanding the challenges and hazards that oil and gas workers face, which lead to thousands of injuries each year. The industry has unique and significant hazards that cannot be ignored, and it is essential to identify the pain points and challenges.

2. Knowing the variables of eye protection design, such as the function of glasses and how they lead to performance that provides basic and comprehensive eye protection. Understanding the solutions that help deliver protection for specific safety hazards.

3. Identifying the best term of eye protection possible by considering questions that help determine the proper fit, coverage, and type of glasses needed. It is essential to avoid sacrificing fit for coverage, and to ensure that the glasses are up-to-date and comfortable to wear all day.

4. Addressing specific tasks that require eye protection, such as welding, which often requires wearing safety glasses inside a welding hood. New coatings have been developed that can reduce fogging in hot environments and can provide better performance than traditional coatings.

5. Improving eye protection by addressing fit and coverage issues. A tight-fitting glass may provide coverage, but it may not be comfortable enough to wear all day. Solutions to improve fit and coverage, such as goggles and better designs, can reduce injuries and improve productivity.

This short on-demand webinar will review common risks in hand protection for workers in chemical environments which inspired Honeywell to design the new Flextril glove, incorporating QR cell phone technology to empower workers. During this webinar, you will learn:

• A general understanding of Chemical Glove Standards

• An introduction to different areas where chemical gloves are used

• How to select the proper hand protection for chemical protection

• A general understanding of Honeywell hand protection solutions

• An introduction to the newly released Flextril hand protection glove line, as well as how to use Flextril’s QR technology on the jobsite
