Workplace injuries are common, especially which harm the eyes. Although the OHSA makes it a compulsion for employers to provide safety equipment to workers, non-compliance still exists at the workplace. According to BLS (Bureau of labor statistics), thousands of people get their eyes injured each day at work. Moreover, those laborers who wear safety eyewear are also prone to sustaining injuries due to the unsuitability of the equipment to prevent hazards. Eye experts claim the simplest solution to counter this problem is to wear the right type of glasses which suit to prevent a specific set of hazards in a given environment. This article explains how 3M Urban 6 is an adequate choice when it comes to meeting the safety assurance level prescribed by the OHSA.
RX option
Prior to implementing a comprehensive safety program, employers are required by statute of OHSA to discern any vision correction problems faced by workers. Weak eyesight is extremely discomforting & thus, hampers productivity. There are times when employees requiring any refractive correction for their vision are left unaddressed. This leaves them with outdated equipment. It’s also one of the major cause why workers reject to wear any eyewear, citing incompatibility with their eyesight as a major cause.
Contact lenses are NOT an option here. You won’t see many industrial workers who adhere to the idea of wearing contacts while working. Contact lenses require eye fluids to stay in position. When worn under a huge protective overlay such as goggles, they are prone to slip or dislodge out of position due to dryness. This must be paid special attention to as it can create a lot of discomfort in the eyes. Furthermore, it might even prompt you to take off the gear and rub your eyes with greasy hands. This would only exacerbate the situation of your eyes. Hence, it is always recommended to wear Prescription Safety Glasses. They combine the RX option along with the required level of protection as per the demands of OHSA & ANSI.
