TYPES OF WORK GLOVES

Even though our hands are critical to our jobs, some of us neglect to protect them properly. Unlike exposure injuries like respirable crystalline silica to the lungs, injuries to the hands are immediately apparent. That’s because the hands are home to some of the body’s most dense clusters of nerve endings. These nerve endings allow the hand to perform remarkable tasks like reading braille. They are also the reason hand injuries are so painful. Although we’ve reviewed gloves, we’ve never discussed the many types of work gloves and how to choose the right glove for you. We decided to remedy that with this handy guide.
