Section 1910.132 requires employers to
perform a hazard assessment of the workplace to determine if
personal protective equipment (PPE) is necessary. Section
1910.132(f) requires employers to train employees in the use of
PPE. Each affected employer will have to document that a hazard
assessment and training was performed. The Agency estimates that it
will take each employer 10 minutes to retrieve the appropriate
documentation for examination by an OHSA compliance
officer.
