4 Head Protection Products to Stock to Improve Workplace Safety

The lack of understanding and training surrounding head protection is dangerous and could potentially cost your business thousands of dollars, according to a new study conducted by J.J. Keller and the International Safety Equipment Association. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported from 2021 to 2022, 195,720 head injuries occurred among U.S. workers, with 684 fatalities in 2022. Less than half of those reports were wearing any type of head protection.

Hardware Retailing has gathered four head protection items for you to stock on your shelves to promote the importance of head injury avoidance and keep your customers safe.
