What are the main categories of personal protective equipment (PPE)?
Correct Answer:
Head/eye/face protection, hearing protection, respiratory protection, hand protection, body protection, and foot protection.
Explanation:
Personal protective equipment is grouped by the body parts it protects. The main categories cover the head/eye/face, hearing, respiratory, hands, body, and feet. This comprehensive range ensures protection against a wide set of hazards—from falling objects and sharp tools to noise, chemicals, and heat. The correct option lists all six categories, which is why it's the best choice. The other options are incomplete because they only reference a subset of PPE, such as just helmets and gloves, or only hearing protection, or only body protection, leaving other hazards unaddressed.
