Read the exclusive interview with DealersUnited CEO

by Motyka Johnson

Everyone knows that eyes are more vulnerable to accident and injury than any other part of your body. Just one small, even microscopic foreign particle can do serious or permanent damage to your eyes.

Additionally, occupational safety laws hold employers accountable for their staff to use eye and face protection that protects from physical and chemical hazards whenever those hazards are present. In practice, that means that everyone should be sporting the “safe look” any time they are in the service bay.

Occasionally, an employee complains about wearing safety equipment, especially if they are new to the eye glasses requirement. Symptoms often include eye strain, migraines, or forgetfulness (forgets to put them on).

As a manager or safety advocate, what are some things you do to make sure that everyone in your shop wears safety glasses?
