Ensuring complete face protection of workers through face shields | Harbor365

In any working environment, there are various perils that a worker may experience and be harmed by. Among these dangers are a few threats to the eyes and face. When choosing protection for your workers, it is important to understand what kind of protection to wear for a task and when to wear it.

For instance, if you are a welder, you might stress over flying metal and sparks hitting your face. In the job that you are working around splashing synthetics, you need your face completely protected. In such events, a worker should never neglect the significance of protecting their entire face and only a legitimate face shield can mitigate possible risks.

Face shield covers the facial territory from the eyebrows to underneath the jawline and the whole width of the wearer's head. They are normally secured over or around the head with an adjustable band. Laborers need a face shield across a huge number of ventures to ensure reliable protection from various dangers.

A Face shield protects the face from immediate skin damage that can be caused by

Working with concentrated acids

Sonicating tissue samples

Working in high temperature

Working with hot molten metal

Working with machinery that produces hot sparks

Dispensing liquid nitrogen & other hazardous liquids

Metal chips, projectiles, and shaving hurting the face

Flying particles, woodchips & debris

Face Shields are intended for face protection and ought to never be considered as essential eye protection. They don't meet the prerequisites to be utilized as eye protection. They ought to be used as a rule in combination with safety glasses or goggles.

When face shields are worn for safety against UV light, they should be specifically designed to shield the face and eyes from perilous radiation. Face shields must comply with safety standards when they are used for chemical protection or UV protection.

At the point when enormous items or objects traveling at high rates of speed strike face shields, the visor may break or be undermined and cause injury to the wearer's face or eyes. So the workers should ensure that the face shields are damage proof. Laborers ought to stay away from regions where such perils exist or utilize outrageous alerts on the off chance that they can't be avoided totally. Regularly check face shields for damage, and don't wear a face shield that has sustained damage.

Types of Face shields

Tinted face shields are generally utilized in circumstances where anti-glare lenses are fundamental, such as working on pipelines in the sun or on a construction site outside. Cutting and pounding applications are regular spots for tinted face shields to be utilized.

Face shield windows are available in removable and lift front models. Removable windows allow the replacement of damaged windows and lift front windows can be raised whenever necessary or they can be left in the lowered position. Plastic windows can protect against light impact. Wire-screened windows may include a plastic or a glass insert and can protect against some moderate impact but aren’t recommended for use involving chemical or liquid hazards.

Headgear supports the window shield while securing the device to the head. Adjustable headgear includes straps that allow the user to adjust the size to ensure a proper fit.

Arc-rated face shield is specialized equipment for electrical safety with higher risks.

An optical face shield is equipment with a special optical density (OD) value for ultraviolet radiation or infrared shielding.

A disposable medical face shield is for health care and biological hazards that provide protection from splash, spray, spatter, or droplets of blood or any other potentially infectious materials.

Welder’s helmet is to protect the eyes and face against heat, flash burn, UV or infrared rays, and sparks.

2017 NBA Draft: Ranking the 10 best big men

The 2017 NBA Draft class has been heralded for the last 18 months as a strong group filled with talent. With selections nearing, that prophecy appears to be mostly true. Certainly as more tape has been evaluated and players are poked and prodded to every extent, expectations can begin to slide, but this class continues to be seen as one of great value.

Oddly, most of that value is disproportionately found in the guard and small forward positions. The league has changed, favoring shooting, speed, and athleticism more than plodding bigs in the paint. Because of that, only about three legitimate big men will be selected in the lottery of this year’s draft.

Don’t be mistaken, though; there is size and inside talent available, though those players will be picked later in the night and are difficult to differentiate right now. It’s hard to decipher which of those bigs will put in the hard work and accept their roles with their new teams in order to succeed.

Here’s our look at the 10 best big men available in the 2017 NBA Draft.

1. Jonathan Isaac, Florida State

When teams are picking at the top of the draft, they’re expecting to get players with the potential to be a star on the offensive end, capable of being the go-to-guy in crunch time. In today’s NBA though, we’ve learned that those players aren’t always the most valuable players available. Big names like Draymond Green and Rudy Gobert have proven that there is value at both ends of the floor, even with passive scorers.

That is where Isaac will fit in. He is a 6-foot-11 freshman who never needed to be the key offensive cog at Florida State, and yet he was productive, efficient, and exciting in his only season in Tallahassee.

Even at only 19 years old, Isaac flashed the capabilities to defend both forward positions and centers, while being active on the glass and available to score when need be. Per 40 minutes, he averaged 18.3 points and 12.0 rebounds. He ranked in the top 3 in the vaunted ACC in rebounding rate and block rate. He embraced his place as a next level role player, like NBA All-Stars Draymond Green or Andrei Kirilenko.

In the right situation at the next level, he’ll become the kind of player analytics nerds love and you wished played for your team.

2. Lauri Markkanen, Arizona

Being a 7-foot fair-haired European means Markkanen has heard, and will continue to hear, a million comparisons to Dirk Nowitzki and Kristaps Porzingis. In reality, he’s neither of those players. He won’t protect the rim like Porzingis, and he doesn’t have Nowitzki’s creative offensive toolbox (though no one does).

Markkanen is a unique specimen who will be a major factor in the NBA. He has a big body, but is smooth with the ball in the post. Centers who can score on the block and shoot over 40 percent from outside the arc certainly don’t grow on trees.

It will take him some time to find his footing on the defensive end, but Markkanen will make up for that by rebounding his position and getting buckets in both transition and the halfcourt.

3. Zach Collins, Gonzaga

It was clear during Gonzaga’s Final Four run that Collins was a force to be reckoned with. Coming off the bench behind fifth-year senior Przemek Karnowski, the Las Vegas native saw more limited minutes than many other suspected first-rounders, but he made the most of them. After flashing his skills in the NCAA Tournament, he was destined to return to school as a preseason All-American or hear his name called in the lottery in June.

He chose the latter, for good reason. Despite a baby face and developing frame, Collins will be able to step in and produce from day 1 in the NBA. He can protect the rim, rebound, score with his back to the basket, and hit jumpers out to 18 feet. Immediately he’ll be a valued big man in any team’s rotation.

After a few years to grow his body and his game, Collins could resemble a solid traditional big man like Al Horford.

4. John Collins, Wake Forest

The Wake Forest big man put himself on the map this season by destroying ACC competition. He demanded attention, ranking in the top three in the conference in effective field goal percentage, offensive rebound rate, true shooting percentage, fouls drawn per 40 minutes, win shares, and points per game. He posted the highest PER ever by an ACC player, since the stat was first tracked in 2009-10.

He was energetic on both ends of the floor, showcasing a high motor that will earn him accolades at the next level. Collins will be able to switch all over the floor defensively, a highly valued skill in the run-and-shoot world of the current NBA.

In transition, he’ll make opposing big men run all 94 feet every possession, with a long stride and quick burst. A capable point guard will love Collins and grow him into a real weapon around the rim.

5. Ike Anigbogu, UCLA

Similar to Collins, Anigbogu will make his living at the next level through his energy and effort. Collins, however, will be adapting to that role after posting a high usage rate at Wake Forest.

We’ve all seen what Anigbogu can do as rim running rebounder – because that’s exactly what he did all season for UCLA. Following the lead of Lonzo Ball, the 6-foot-10 big man impressively streaked up and down the court, even while playing at 250 pounds.

His body, for someone who is only 18 years old, is stunning. He looks and moves like he’s already grown into his body. It will be a bit of process to teach him how to use his size and speed, but once he gets the hang of it, he could be the next Tristan Thompson.

6. Justin Patton, Creighton

There should be no questions about the work ethic of Justin Patton, after he came to Creighton as an unheralded recruit and leaves after a redshirt year and one season on the court, likely bound for the first round of the NBA Draft.

Compared to previous players of the same mold, like Tyson Chandler and DeAndre Jordan, Patton looks much more polished and skilled. Both of those future stars were raw as rookies, needing time and reps to learn how to become the kind of rim protector and screen-and-roll participant that they’d both later develop into.

Patton has a better jump shot and feel for the game as a teenager than Chandler or Jordan did. He even occasionally flashes some fancy footwork and a nice post move. Still, he’s a bit of a project overall. The freshman looked lost at times on defense this season or found the bench during games when he’d disappear from the stat sheet.

If that project pays off, he can be a really unique weapon, with the ability run at the rim hard for dunks, or step out for pick-and-pop jumpers.

7. Bam Adebayo, Kentucky

You may start to notice a theme in these rankings, as the back half of this year’s first round should feature a host of big men without classic skillsets (post moves, jump shots), but with real athletic ability and high-motor effectiveness.

Adebayo was absolutely the latter in his only season at Kentucky.

As a college freshman, am already features a broad chest, monstrous shoulders, and unreal verticality. He’s an absolute bully on the boards and can score if he gets the ball in the right position.

Early in his career, he’ll be valuable as a screener and physical defender in the paint. He’ll grow his value if he can develop a decent jump shot or enough offensive craftiness to attract some attention in the pick-and-roll.

8. Ivan Rabb, Cal

After a good, but not stellar freshman year at Cal, Rabb joined the long list of players throughout recent history who declared for the draft one year after peaking. As a sophomore, many thought he plateaued and failed to build on his skills. His shooting percentage plummeted from 62 percent as a freshman alongside Jaylen Brown and future Gonzaga transfer Jordan Mathews to an ugly 48 percent as a sophomore.

He had a tough year offensively and likely proved he isn’t going to be an offensive star at the next level. Even so, he averaged 10.5 rebounds per game and has always proven himself to be spectacular on the glass.

Placed back into an offensive role that better suits his skills, Rabb should shine as a rebounder, active defender, and finisher around the rim. Going late in the first round should give him the benefit of joining a good team who can place him in the right position.

9. Harry Giles, Duke

Everyone knows the name of the Duke top recruit, but no one knows which team is willing to gamble on Giles and his knees.

Giles sat atop most mock drafts when he arrived in Durham, but after two ACL tears in high school and a third arthroscopic knee procedure just before this season, Giles looked undeniably different. The once bouncy big man who drew comparisons to a young Chris Webber looked grounded and stiff. He adjusted and had some productive moments at Duke, though nothing that would be worth a first-round pick.

If someone is going to select Giles, it will be because their scouts loved him as a high schooler and their medical team feels good about his knees moving forward. That won’t be easy, but with Giles’ talent, someone will take the chance and hope they strike gold.

10. Jarrett Allen, Texas

After entering Texas as a five-star recruit, Allen had a nice season for a bad Longhorns team. He showed NBA scouts why he was so highly recruited out of high school.

He stands 6-foot-10, with a long 7-foot-5 wingspan and a 35-inch vertical leap. Needless to say, he’s a factor at the rim defensively. Unlike some of the other players on this list, his body will require some real growth in order for him to contribute in the NBA. He’s still gangly and thin, likely getting him pushed around in the paint by bigger players.

Offensively, Allen has some skills but also had a tendency to disappear at times at Texas. He had more games where he failed to earn a trip to the free throw line (three times) than attempted double-digit foul shots (zero times).

His offense will be a work in progress, and he’ll earn his stripes on defense.
