As an employer, how do I ensure employees wear their PPE?

Under the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005, there is a duty on employees to wear PPE provided. Where this is not being adhered to, you should ask the employees why the PPE is not being worn in case there is a genuine difficulty being encountered by the wearer.
Employers could consider including persistent non wearing of PPE into their disciplinary procedures.
