Clothing and equipment safety standards are published by the International Safety Equipment Association (ISEA). They cover requirements for clothing and equipment in a construction setting, with specifications for protective gloves, overalls, and vests. Many standards also address equipment that many regulatory entities require to be on job sites, such as what items need to go into first aid kits, specifications for emergency showers, and more.
This standard establishes minimum size requirements, as well as garment and package labeling requirements, for limited-use and disposable coveralls. This standard includes a sizing chart to assist the wearer in the selection of the correct garment size, and test protocols to validate size selection.
This standard sets forth the performance requirements for gas detector tube units and components, which are used to determine the concentrations of toxic gases and vapors in working environments.
This standard seeks to provide manufacturers and end users of diffusive samplers with guidance concerning the tests to be used in evaluating samplers for various air sampling applications. This standard is not intended as a means of sampler classification, nor as a means, by which the performance of different samplers can be strictly compared.
ANSI/ISEA 105-2016 addresses the classification and testing of hand protection for specific performance properties related to chemical and industrial applications Hand protection includes gloves, mittens, partial gloves, or other items covering the hand or a portion of the hand that are intended to provide protection against or resistance to a specific hazard. This standard provides performance ranges for related to mechanical protection (cut-resistance, puncture resistance and abrasion resistance), chemical protection (permeation resistance, degradation) and other performance characteristics such as ignition resistance and vibration reductions based on standardized test methods. Descriptions of the test methods used in this standard are provided. Different levels of performance are specified for each property with zero (0) representing the minimal protection or none at all.
ANSI/ISEA 107-2020 sets forth criteria related to the general design requirements, testing and performance requirements and product labeling for high-visibility safety apparel used to enhance the presence of a wearer. Garments conforming to this standard are designated in terms of Type and Performance Class whereby the Type is based on the expected use setting and the Performance Class is identified based on the amount of visible materials and design attributes incorporated into the finished garment. Key updates include the specific criteria for a single-use high-visibility disposable coverall, which is often used in dirty working environments where worker visibility is imperative and introduction a garment’s overall nighttime luminance as an optional reporting characteristics. Updates have also been made to the tests methods in an effort to align more closely with other material tests and to reflect updated protocols.
This standard specifies the minimum requirements for the design, performance, testing, and certification of air-purifying respiratory protective smoke escape devices for the immediate emergency evacuation without entry/re-entry of adult civilians. The requirements of the standard specify an air-purifying respiratory protective escape device with a laboratory-tested 15-minute service life intended to provide head, eye and respiratory protection from particulate matter, irritants and toxic gases and vapors commonly produced by fire. The standard shall not apply to the requirements for provision, installation, or use of air-purifying respiratory protective smoke escape devices.This standard shall not apply to respiratory protective smoke escape devices that are designed for use in circumstances where an oxygen deficiency (oxygen less than 19.5 percent by volume) exists or might exist.
This standard is intended for use by first responders and receiving medical facilities for the initial decontamination of victims of contamination and possible exposure. This standard addresses classification and testing criteria for fixed and portable showers designed for decontamination facilities. The standard establishes minimum performance requirements for equipment capable of decontaminating one or more persons at the same time.
The second iteration of this widely-used consensus standard, updated in October 2011, specifies the requirements for high-visiblity vests utilized by the public safety sector.
ANSI/ISEA Z308.1-2015 establishes minimum performance requirements for first aid kits and their supplies that are intended for use in various work environments. Classification of first aid kits, designating the assortment of items and quantity of each item, is based on the anticipated number of users intended to be served by each first aid kit, as well as the complexity of the work environment and level of hazards. First aid kit containers are classified by portability, ability to be mounted, resistance to water and corrosion and impact resistance.
This standard establishes minimum performance and use requirements for eyewash and shower equipment for the emergency treatment of the eyes or body of a person who has been exposed to hazardous materials. It covers the following types of equipment: emergency showers, eyewashes, eye/face washes, and combination units. This standard also includes performance and use requirements for personal wash units and drench hoses, which are considered supplemental to emergency eyewash and shower equipment.
This standard sets forth criteria related to the general requirements, testing, permanent marking, selection, care, and use of protectors to minimize the occurrence and severity or prevention of injuries from such hazards as impact, non-ionizing radiation and liquid splash exposures in occupational and educational environments including, but not limited to, machinery operations, material welding and cutting, chemical handling, and assembly operations. Certain hazardous exposures are not covered in this standard. These include, but are not limited to: Bloodborne pathogens, X-rays, high energy particulate radiation, microwaves, radio-frequency radiation lasers, masers, and sports and recreation.
This standard describes Types and Classes, testing and performance requirements for protective helmets. These include recommended safety requirements for authorities considering the establishment of regulations or codes concerning the use of protective helmets.
