Poster: Why Protect Eyes?

Eye injuries are serious business. I took a picture of this slide during a recent presentation because it was a little surprising that this many eye injuries were still occurring. So what are we doing to prevent them? Notice that 63% of all eye injuries occur “away from work;” so we need to be certain to protect ourselves both on and off the job alike.

Our safety glasses should be our last line of defense. Just like with everything else, we should attempt to remove the hazards first.

Thanks for reading and for everyone’s continued support of safety.

Thanks for the share, PT!
