Lets talk about hair coverage!!!!
The BRC/IoP Standard (Cat B. ) states:
Where appropriate, snoods for beards and moustaches shall be worn. Protective clothing worn in production areas shall provide adequate covering of scalp hair and upper torso.
Adequate... a word frequently discussed in the Safepak forum….
Is an open mesh hair net/beard net or a baseball cap adequate?
Further, if mop caps are used, should elastic strength be challenged??
My opinion would be that a closed weave hair covering should be worn, the quality of which must be sufficient to fully envelope the hair. (Long hair should be suitably tied back prior to donning of hair coverage)
Any thoughts?
Should the standard be more prescriptive??
