Thermal protection.
Size and comfort.
Abrasion/resistance requirements.
Gloves made from a wide variety of materials are
designed for many types of workplace hazards. In general,
gloves fall into four groups:
Insulating gloves.
Once you have selected your gloves tell your employees how to
use them properly to protect themselves. Tell them when they
should be replaced, and if they are reusable gloves ask them to
rinse them before removal (if practical) and tell them how they
should be stored. Review their use periodically and get employee
feedback, this can help check that the gloves are performing
properly.

It is very important that the correct glove size is provided and worn
and clear guidance is provided to ensure that sizing is right first
time. Two measurements are required to establish the correct size
- the hand diameter (A) and length (B = distance between wrist
and tip of middle finger).
Measurements are given in mm.

Complex protection - PPE for protection against lethal dangers or serious and irreversible injury, eg. protection against chemicals.
The European Directive 89/686/EEC specifies the fundamental requirements for PPE. Norms for safety gloves were devised for these
different requirements.
