OSHA does not recommend specific brands or types of gloves; instead, it provides guidelines to help employers select appropriate gloves based on the hazards present in their workplace. Employers should evaluate the specific risks, such as chemical exposure, abrasions, cuts, or temperature extremes, and choose gloves that offer adequate protection against these hazards. OSHA's personal protective equipment (PPE) standards emphasize conducting a hazard assessment to determine the suitable glove material and design for the task at hand.
