The Importance of Hand Protection Safety
Hand injuries are among the most common workplace injuries, and they can lead to severe consequences, including lost workdays, decreased productivity, and substantial medical expenses. According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), hand injuries account for nearly a third of all occupational injuries and illnesses. These injuries are not only painful for the affected employees but can also significantly disrupt operations and morale within a company.
Common Hand Injuries and Their Causes
- Cuts and Lacerations: Often caused by sharp tools, equipment, or materials.
- Crush Injuries: Result from hands being caught in or between objects.
- Burns: Can be caused by exposure to extreme temperatures or chemicals.
- Punctures: Occur from handling sharp objects or materials.
- Repetitive Strain Injuries (RSIs): Arise from repetitive motions or overuse.
Each type of injury requires specific protective measures, highlighting the need for tailored hand protection solutions.
