  3. Objective To minimize the risk of exposure to hazards associated with hands and arms.

  4. Gloves • Gloves provide protection to fingers, hands, and sometimes wrists and forearms. The types of gloves range from common cotton work gloves to highly specialized gloves used in specific industries. • Many gloves are rated as being safe for use with certain kinds of chemicals. Read the manufacturer's chemical resistance charts before selecting gloves. Charts rate each glove material for its resistance to specific chemicals.

  5. General Glove Use • Do not wear gloves when working directly around rotating parts. • Use gloves designed to protect against specific hazards of the job being performed. • Use impermeable rubber gloves (e.g. butyl, PVC, neoprene, etc.) when handling corrosive chemicals (acids and alkalis), cleansers or petroleum products. • Use leather gloves or leather reinforced gloves with metal stitching when handling rough or abrasive materials. • Use metal mesh or cut resistant fiber gloves when working with sharp objects such as knives and saws.

  6. Chemical Hazard Protection • Chemical protective gloves are available in a range of materials including natural rubber, neoprene, nitrile, butyl, PVC, PVA and Viton. The correct glove to select varies with the chemical handled (see permeation rate chart in the guidelines). • Gloves used to handle toxic chemicals are determined by the breakthrough time, permeation rate, penetration rate, and the degradation rate of the glove. • Use chemically resistant gloves when handling chemicals including liquids, particles and gases. • Make sure gloves are capable of maintaining their level of protection throughout the time of the task.

  7. Abrasion Material Protection • Use gloves made of metal mesh or cut resistant fibers such as Kevlar to protect against sharp object and abrasions. • Use leather gloves to protect against abrasive materials.

  8. General Hand Protection • Use rubber, plastic or knit gloves to resist cuts and abrasions. • Use rubber gloves to repel liquids or in wet conditions. • Leather and cotton knit gloves should only be used to protect against minimal risk to health and safety.

  9. Glove Maintenance • Maintain gloves in good condition. • Replace gloves if torn or deteriorated. • Replace gloves if saturated with liquid chemicals. • Clean and inspect rubber gloves before and after each use. Dispose of gloves with holes or cracks.

  10. Glove Fit • Gloves should be long enough to cover the arm well above wrist, leaving no gap between glove and coat or shirt sleeve. Gloves too short or too small can cause hand fatigue and gloves that are too large are clumsy to work with.
