Selection of appropriate protective clothing should be based on Hazard assessment in which the user organization identifies the hazards, determines the potential for contact with individual workers, the consequences of exposure, and the type of practices or controls needed to eliminate or minimize exposure. When it is determined that Body protective clothing is needed, the risk assessment should identify the type of protective clothing needed in terms of its overall type and performance.
