What PPE is required on NZ construction sites?

NZ WorkSafe requires appropriate PPE based on hazard assessment: safety helmet (AS/NZS 1801), safety footwear (AS/NZS 2210.3), hi-vis clothing (AS/NZS 4602.1), safety eyewear (AS/NZS 1337), and hearing protection (AS/NZS 1270) where noise exceeds 85 dB(A).

Does KiwiWorkGear stock PPE that meets NZ WorkSafe requirements?

Yes — KiwiWorkGear only stocks PPE from reputable manufacturers meeting relevant NZ and Australian standards. Contact us for compliance documentation if required.

Can I get bulk PPE orders for my whole team?

Absolutely. We supply businesses, contractors, and teams throughout NZ. Contact us at sales@kiwiworkgear.co.nz or call 0800 924 284 for trade pricing on bulk orders.

How often should PPE be inspected and replaced?

PPE should be inspected before every use. Replace immediately if damaged. Key lifespans: helmets every 2–5 years, safety boots every 1–2 years of heavy use, hi-vis when fluorescent colours fade significantly.
