Does protective clothing need to be removed before leaving the work area?
A29. Yes. OSHA requires that personal protective equipment be removed prior to leaving the work area. While “work area” must be determined on a case-by-case basis, a work area is generally considered to be an area where work involving occupational exposure occurs or where the contamination of surfaces may occur.
