E48: The Evolution of Head Protection
In our latest episode, we\u2019re talking about a form of personal protective equipment that is almost synonymous with safety itself: Head protection! Head injuries are incredibly serious, so it makes sense that the hard hat has become the PPE that is particularly emblematic of safety. However, other than a few fit tests or maybe the color occasionally changing from yellow to white, blue, or orange, some may think that there\u2019s little to be changed or improved upon with traditional hard hats\u2014but they would be wrong! Head protection is evolving to be more effective, comfortable, and easy to use, and new solutions are helping to protect the workforce better than ever before. In today\u2019s EHS on Tap episode, sponsored by Ergodyne\xae, we\u2019re taking a special look at head protection with a couple of experts who are on the cutting edge of the evolution of this important form of PPE.\n\nJoining us today on the podcast are Chris Cota, Product Manager for Ergodyne, and Aaron Skemp, Ergodyne Product Specialist.
