Personal Protective Equipment protects the user against health or safety risks at work. It includes items such as safety masks, gloves, protective eye protection, good visibility shoes, protective footwear, safety harnesses, and respiratory protective equipment (RPE). The PPE is the first line of defense for monitoring or avoiding exposure to hazards. The PPE protects the worker from possible exposure to hazards. In certain cases, PPE is mandated by legislation or internal protocols and provides additional control to assist in protecting employees. In manufacturing sector, the laborers are encouraged to use the PPEs, and these are monitored through various incentive programs.
 
The revenue driver in this sector are the Stringent Regulatory Framework. Authorities such as OSHA have enlisted certain regulations that require employers to protect their employees from any danger they may experience at work. OSHA provides extensive assistance across a variety of resources including professional advice on effective health and safety strategies, policy proposals, seminars for staff, community support programs, strategic partnerships, training and education, and more. Revised safety guidelines were issued by ANSI (American National Standard Institute) and EU (European Union) urging PPE manufacturers to produce comfortable ergonomic products.
 
The Personal Protecting Equipment market is affected by sudden surge in the end user markets such as healthcare, manufacturing, transportation markets. Adoption of the stringent government regulations and increased awareness about the importance of workplace safety are the key drivers of the market. With the increased rate of industrial development, the likelihood of workplace hazards is expected to increase. In the past few years, around 317 million non-fatal and 321000 fatal workplace accidents occur worldwide. This has prompted companies to raise awareness of health risks and adhere to workplace health and safety standards.
 
The PPE market has gained importance due to the sudden surge in demand due to the Corona Virus. The local legislation in a few countries have implemented the use of mask and gloves for common citizens. The healthcare staff are in the highly vulnerable category due to the constant exposure to the COVID infected patients.
