Face Shield Requirements

Ensure all employees understand when face shields are required, their limitations, and the importance of protecting the face and eyes from workplace hazards.

Face shields help protect against flying particles, chemical splashes, hot liquids, sparks, radiant energy, biological contaminants, and high-pressure spray hazards. However, face shields do not replace safety glasses or goggles. Appropriate eye protection must be worn under the face shield unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer or company policy.

Face shields are required for all wash-down, cleaning, and rinsing activities that use water within plant operations.

Examples include:

  • Equipment wash-down

  • Floor cleaning with water hoses

  • Process area rinsing

  • Vessel or tank cleaning

  • Cleaning conveyors, piping, or production equipment

Even when using only water, dirt, product residue, chemicals, and other contaminants can become airborne or splash back, creating potential hazards.

Required PPE for wash-down activities:

  • Safety glasses with side shields or chemical-splash goggles

  • Face shield

  • Any additional PPE identified by the task hazard assessment
