HARD HATS EXPIRE

Did you know that hard hats expire? Well it does. Before I explain, allow me to explain what a hard hat is and what it is used for. This is of course for the benefit of anyone who does not know exactly what this piece of safety equipment is.

What is a Hard Hat?
A hard hat is a safety personal protective equipment that is often made of plastic. It is worn on the head and is supposed to serve as protection for the head. In other words, it protects the head from impact from objects falling from above or at height.
You will likely find contractors in construction areas using this piece of personal protective equipment.

All hard hats expires. The expiry dates vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. You can find the expiry dates on the inside of the hard hats. The hard part is, there is no standard for presenting this expiry dates. I have seen numerous methods that manufacturers use to present their expiry dates. Notwithstanding, users must know these methods. If you need help identifying the expiry date on your hard hat, you can send me a mail on eaglesgambit@gmail.com. Be safe.
