Tekst 1: Waarom draagt James handschoenen?

Tekst 1: Waarom vindt James het dragen van los zittende kleding gevaarlijk?

James, 32 Operator at an extrusion department:

There are different types of PPE we need to wear in our department. We wear safety shoes and earprotection and because we work with some hot surfaces we also wear gloves. 

It is very important for us to wear tight clothing because, if clothes aren't tight enough, they can get stuck in moving parts of the machine. I have seen accidents happen to people who were stuck in parts of a machine and that was horrible!

Tekst 3: Wat bedoelt Jeff met “we give each other feedback for safety”?

Tekst 3: Wat bedoelt Jeff met “we just use common sense”?

Jeff, 28 Operator

I work for a small company and we don't really need rules, instead we give eachother feedback for safety. 

Sometimes we do wear heat-resistant gloves but we work in a clean environment and gloves can contaminate the product, therefore I don't wear them often. 

Actually, we don't wear any PPE and there are no strict safety rules. We just use common sense!
