Wearing the correct eye-wear PPE for your workplace needs is paramount in decreasing the risk of associated injury.

Recommended Practices for Occupational Eye Protection

Standard AS/NZS 1336 details information for the selection, care and use of eye protectors worn in occupational environments to protect the eyes against hazards, such as dust, splashing materials and molten metals, harmful gases, vapours and aerosols, high-intensity radiation generated during welding operations and furnace work.

Furthermore this standard details the recommended methods for elimination or control of eye hazards, provides recommendations for the use of eye protectors which comply with the relevant Australian/New Zealand Standards, and contains basic details for the development of eye safety programs. Additional guidance is provided for manufacturers and dispensers of prescription lenses on the requirements for production of prescription personal eye protectors.

This Standard addresses hazards arising from normal occupational processes. It does not address hazards resulting from machinery malfunction and misuse.
