  1. That they can show they understand and use PPE ✔
  2. That they bought their own gear
  3. That they passed a fitness test

Why: PPE training covers when and what PPE is needed, how to put it on, take it off and adjust it, its limits, and its care. Workers must demonstrate they understand before doing the work.

Huh, didn't know that: Workers must be retrained when the workplace or the PPE changes enough to make old training obsolete.
