Recommendations for gloves and other protective clothing

When working with chemicals, it is usually necessary to prevent contact with the skin. Although in some cases the skin can be sufficiently resistant to the substance to prevent absorption, in most cases contact leads to skin disorders. A substance can also penetrate the skin without attacking it, being absorbed by the blood and doing harm elsewhere in the body. 

If gloves have to be worn continuously, skin irritation and even skin disorders can occur. As a preventive measure, it may be necessary to wear lined work gloves, or a pair of cotton gloves inside the work gloves. 

The more prolonged and/or repeated the contact with chemicals, the more durable and impermeable the gloves need to be gauntlets are recommended for prolonged/repeated 

One or more persons should be placed In charge of supplying gloves and given special instructions. 

Cotton gloves should be provided to wear inside the safety gloves.
