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.

Cal/OSHA Title 8 §3380(f): The employer's personal protective equipment hazard assessment, which §3384(a) refers to for cuts, lacerations and abrasions.

Questions people ask about gloves for warehouse, packaging and shipping

What gloves are best for package handling? The ISEA Key lists material handling, packaging and warehouse work at cut level A1 and at puncture levels 1 and 2, and A4 for packaging and warehouse where sharper edges are present; the manufacturers name warehouse and packaging in their application lists. This page lists both sets. Thin PU-coated gloves are what the manufacturers publish for dry handling and feel; nitrile where boxes are wet or oily.

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.

What do nitrile coated gloves mean? A knit glove (nylon, polyester or an HPPE cut-resistant blend) dipped on the palm or the whole hand in nitrile, a synthetic rubber the manufacturers publish for oil, grease and abrasion resistance. Foam nitrile is aerated for light oil grip; sandy or micro-foam nitrile is textured for wet and oily grip; smooth nitrile is the plain dip. The finish is on each product page.

What are pip coated gloves? PIP (Protective Industrial Products) sells coated knit gloves under its G-Tek, MaxiFlex (made by ATG for PIP) and other names: a nylon, polyester or PolyKor cut-resistant shell with a nitrile, foam nitrile, polyurethane or latex coating, each with its ANSI/ISEA 105 level published on the product page. PIP's workbook also names the applications for each style, which is what puts a PIP glove in the named group on this page.

Which is better, polyurethane or nitrile gloves? The manufacturers describe them, not rank them. Polyurethane (PU) is the thin palm coat on light-duty and precision gloves: good feel, dry grip, low lint. Nitrile is thicker and the manufacturers publish it for wet and oily grip (foam and sandy nitrile finishes) and for oil and abrasion resistance. The coating is on each row here, and the Coating pick-list narrows to either one.

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.
