Flood Emergency PPE

Heavy rain and flooding can expose workers to sewage, contaminated water, sludge, sharp debris and biological hazards. Proper PPE is essential during water rescue, flood cleanup and post-flood dredging.

Recommended PPE:

  1. Puncture-Resistant Chemical Rain Boots
    ≥300 mm height, waterproof and puncture-resistant. Protect feet from contaminated water, sewage and submerged sharp debris.
  2. Heavy-Duty Nitrile Chemical Gloves
    Cut- and tear-resistant nitrile construction. Protect hands from sharp debris, sludge and contaminated materials.
  3. Waterproof Sealed-Seam Coveralls
    One-piece waterproof design with sealed seams. Helps prevent floodwater, sludge and contaminants from contacting the skin and clothing.
  4. Safety Goggles / Full-Face Shield
    Protect eyes and face from contaminated water, sludge and debris splashes.
  5. FFP2 / N95 Respirators
    Help reduce inhalation of airborne particles and biological aerosols generated during sludge handling and post-flood cleanup.

After Work:
Clean and decontaminate PPE properly. Wash exposed skin thoroughly and disinfect any cuts or abrasions promptly.
