Free guide to safety eyewear
June 1st 2010

Specsavers Corporate Eyecare is offering a free guide to Safety Eyewear. The publication has been written for health and safety managers who need to understand the intricacies of selecting the correct safety eyewear for staff.

The eyes and eyesight are particularly vulnerable to hazards in the workplace. While there are set regulations in place, each different working environment presents its own unique risks and requirements.

When developing an eyecare policy and purchasing the necessary eye protection, health and safety managers have a great many factors to consider. The provision of effective safety eyewear is not only about meeting the essential standards but also the needs of the individual.

The guide includes sections on:

• Legal requirements

• Impact resistance

• Levels of protection

• Frame options

• Lens selection

• Maintenance

• Procurement

For a free copy of Specsavers Corporate Eyecare’s guide to Safety Eyewear please call: 0115 9330800 or email: corporateeyecare@uk.specs
