The answer is yes. An employer must ensure the safety and health of its employees. When employees come into contact with, for example, substances or materials that can release splinters (or loose particles) while working, it is important that they wear the right eye protection, in the form of safety glasses. But what about prescription safety glasses and the employer's compensation? We are happy to go through all the steps with you so that it is completely clear.
There are two measures that an employer can take before he is obliged to provide safety glasses.
Step 1
First, he must identify what measures have been or can be taken to make eye protection unnecessary.
Step 2
If the above is not possible, the exposure time to possible risks should be reduced.
If this is not possible either, according to the Working Conditions Decree, an employee is entitled to prescription safety glasses that are reimbursed by the employer. Before taking on this obligation, an employer must carry out a risk inventory and assessment (RI&E).
The NEN-EN 166 standards specify the basic properties that all eye protection products must meet. Eye protection consists of two main parts. Namely, the lenses (made of mineral glass or plastic) and the frame (made of metal or plastic). Both parts must meet the inspection requirements in order to call the glasses safety glasses.
If all requirements are met, the frame is approved. The CE mark may be affixed to this approval. Seeh - Hans Anders Zakelijk offers prescription safety glasses with this NEN-EN 166 standard and CE marking. Due to their light weight, these prescription safety glasses are extremely comfortable to wear. The result? A high level of user acceptance.
