**PPE** (personal protective equipment) is the protection worn by a person to guard against the risks of a workstation: goggles, gloves, closed shoes, hearing protection. Each item is matched to a specific risk.

## In the project

On a mechatronics project, PPE mainly concerns the **manufacturing and workshop** phases: goggles when drilling, [[usinage-en|machining]] and when milling a PCB; closed shoes in the workshop; long hair tied back near rotating machines; gloves and ventilation for resin or [[soudure-en|soldering]]. They are part of the non-negotiable workshop rules (see [[securite-et-qualite-en|safety and quality]]) and are planned as a constraint, with workshop slots and training booked ahead, rather than treated as a last-minute detail.

*The exact choice of PPE for each risk and each machine is carried by the **workshop and fablab supervisors** and by the manufacturing courses. This wiki builds the discipline into the way the project is run.*
