Safety Helmets – Importance, Types and UsesSafety helmets are one of the most frequently used forms of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment). Safety Helmets protect the user’s head against:• Impact from objects falling from above, by resisting and deflecting

blows to the head• Hitting fixed and dangerous objects at the workplace• Lateral forces - this would depend on the type of hard hat

selected. Traditional hard hats are not designed to protect users from impacts to the front, side or back of the head

• Open flame, molten metals splash, electric shock, high temperature. This would depend on the standard of the hard hat selected. For example, a standard hard hat will not protect against an electric shock

In general, protective helmets, or hard hats, should: • Resist penetration by objects • Absorb the shock of a blow • Be water resistant and slow burning, and• Come with instructions explaining proper adjustment and

replacement of the suspension and headbandAll personnel working in areas where there is a possible danger of head injury from impact, or from falling or flying objects, or from electrical shock and burns, are protected by protective helmets. Safety helmets must be worn when performing most construction works, works in the vicinity of lifting equipment (cranes, hoists, etc.) and suspended loads etc. In these situations, the use of a safety helmet will help protect against injuries to the scalp, skull and cervical vertebrae.

In some situations, safety helmets serve as a base for other kinds of PPE i.e. used together with other PPE, e.g. hearing protection, face visors or respiratory protection equipment. In these situations, it is important that the suitability and the compatibility of the different PPE is considered.

All safety helmets should come with instructions on how to correctly adjust and adapt the helmet for each individual user’s needs. It is therefore important that before using the safety helmet, the user should read and become familiar with these safety instructions.When adjusting and positioning a safety helmet on the head, the user must ensure that the:• harness straps crossing the top of the helmet adhere closely to

the head• headband which runs around the head strictly adheres to the

forehead and nape of the neck• safety helmet is securely mounted on the head i.e. the helmet must

be positioned on the head and should be limited by the minimum amount of clearance between the hard shell and the skull. This will give a low center of gravity and provide exceptional balance

• helmet should be adjusted in a manner that even without the use of a chin strap it will stay on the head without falling
