[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 4279824, member: 3099"] It's not just there. Every machine shop I ever worked at mandates hard hats now. It's completely ridiculous. Out of all the hazards in a machine shop, a hard hat will give you ZERO protection from any of them. If a jib crane or gantry crane comes down, that hard hat isn't doing anything for you. The only redeeming thing about them is that most of them have integrated earpro, but I had my own in my tool box and every shop has foam earplug dispensers all over the place. :scratch: I'm pretty sure the safety equipment corps are funneling money into OSHA. :drink: [/QUOTE]
