INTRODUCTIONThe objective of the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Program is
to protect employees from the risk of injury by creating a barrieragainst workplace hazards. Personal protective equipment is not a
substitute for good engineering or administrative controls or good
work practices, but should be used in conjunction with these controls
to ensure the safety and health of employees. Personal protective
equipment will be provided, used, and maintained when it has beendetermined that its use is required and that such use will lessen the
likelihood of occupational injury or illness.
Airports have many hazardous work environments that require
vigilance and the correct personal protective equipment (PPE). Workers
at busy metropolitan airports and smaller, private fields need to abideby the safety protocols in place, but should also look to their own
safety by making sure the equipment they are given is in good repair.
Aviation can potentially increase the rate of disease and airport
operators need to protect passengers, staff and the public with fast,
efficient, collaborative decision-making and action is crucial.

CONCLUSIONAirport was one of the most hazardous working places.
Hence, all of their workers that works inside should be wear
all the approval personal protection equipment that already
fix by the law or their management. All of hazardous work
environments must be pair with the selection of PPE used
such as when the worker works on the case of airplane theyshould wear fall arrestor or safety harness. Workers at busy
metropolitan airports and smaller, private fields need to
abide by the safety protocols in place, but should also look
to their own safety by making sure the equipment they aregiven is in good repair. Because of that, workers need to
wear self or personal protection equipment to protect their
self from any hazard, damage or injuries due to any works
that they had done.
