What the rule says

Each entry is condensed from the paragraph cited; the paragraph itself is the rule and the link opens it.

29 CFR 1910.138(b): Selection: employers base the selection of hand protection on an evaluation of its performance characteristics relative to the tasks to be performed, the conditions present, the duration of use, and the hazards and potential hazards identified.

29 CFR 1910.138(a): General requirements: employers select and require the use of appropriate hand protection when hands are exposed to hazards such as skin absorption of harmful substances, severe cuts or lacerations, severe abrasions, punctures, chemical burns, thermal burns, and harmful temperature extremes.

29 CFR 1910.132(d)(1): Hazard assessment: the employer assesses the workplace to determine whether hazards are present, or likely to be present, that necessitate the use of personal protective equipment, and selects PPE that will protect the affected employee from the hazards identified.

Cal/OSHA Title 8 §3384(a): Hand protection: employers select, provide and require employees to use appropriate hand protection when hands are exposed to hazards such as skin absorption of harmful substances, cuts or lacerations, abrasions, punctures, chemical burns, thermal burns, radioactive materials, and harmful temperature extremes; §3384(b): hand protection is not worn where it could be caught in moving machinery or materials.

Questions people ask about gloves for glass handling

What are the different cut resistance levels for gloves? ANSI/ISEA 105 rates cut resistance A1 to A9 by the grams of force it took a straight blade to cut through the material at 20 mm of travel in the ASTM F2992 test: A1 200 to 499 g, A2 500 to 999 g, A3 1,000 to 1,499 g, A4 1,500 to 2,199 g, A5 2,200 to 2,999 g, A6 3,000 to 3,999 g, A7 4,000 to 4,999 g, A8 5,000 to 5,999 g, A9 6,000 g and above. The level on each glove is the manufacturer's published test result; the cut-level pick-list on this page groups the gloves by it.

Can you get cut while wearing cut-resistant gloves? Yes. The ANSI/ISEA 105 level states the force the material resisted in a controlled blade test, not a guarantee against every edge, point or blow. Serrated blades, moving blades and forces above the tested level can cut through, and the glove protects only what it covers. That is why the standards body publishes the level with a grams figure instead of a yes or no.

Do cut-resistant gloves work? A cut-resistant glove does what its published level says and no more: the level is the grams of blade force the material resisted in the ASTM F2992 test. Cut resistance is not cut proof; a higher level resisted more force in the test, and the glove protects only the area it covers. The ISEA Key pairs each level with example applications so the employer's hazard assessment can match the level to the edge in the work.

What is the most cut-resistant glove? A9 is the top of the ANSI/ISEA 105 scale, 6,000 grams-force and above in the ASTM F2992 test. Set the Cut level pick-list to A9 to see every A9 glove we carry; the grams figure on each row is the manufacturer's own published result, so two A9 gloves can differ. Whether A9 is the level a job needs is the hazard assessment's call under 29 CFR 1910.132(d).

What are the levels of puncture resistant gloves? ANSI/ISEA 105 puncture levels 0 to 5 come from the EN 388 probe test, by the force in newtons needed to push the probe through the material as the ISEA Key prints them: level 1 at 10 N and above, level 2 at 20 N, level 3 at 60 N, level 4 at 100 N, with level 5 printed as 100 N and above in the Key. The Key's example applications run from paper and light material handling at level 0 to oil and gas, mining, heavy construction and demolition at level 5. Each glove's puncture level is on its row as the manufacturer publishes it.
