Personal protective equipment:
The Heijmans stance is that gloves should not be worn. This includes tight-fitting gloves, as listed in the Abomafoon (Health & Safety guide). The reason for this is that each individual can have a different interpretation of “close-fitting” gloves. Close-fitting gloves offer almost no extra protection against bumps and cuts. In addition, there is a risk that employees will use gloves that are insufficiently close-fitting, which increases the risk of the glove and the hand being gripped by the saw blade. The risk that employees will use insufficiently tight-fitting gloves thus outweighs the benefit of close-fitting gloves.
Saw blade:
The saw blade must be set to the maximum height, to reduce the risk of recoil by the
wood.
