New Wrinkles in Hand Protection

Occupational Health & Safety: When it comes to the industrial workplace, hand protection is a critical part of personal safety. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, injuries to the hand, wrist, and finger account for the second-highest (23 percent) number of workplace injuries, with approximately 110,000 lost-time hand injuries annually. Whether your job exposes you to extreme heat or cold, cuts, or chemicals, the importance of reliable, durable gloves simply can't be ignored.
