PPE regulatory and historical RAVS crosswalk
Personal Protective Equipment · Online knowledge course resource v1.0.0 · October 21, 2026
Separate general-industry and construction knowledge tracks are provided. Generic lessons do not establish an actual assessment, selected model, individual fit, technical exposure decision or demonstrated ability. Specialist PPE/program duties remain separate.
Five general-industry training elements
Apply 1910.132(f) within its 1910.132(g) scope. For construction, T01–T05 are adopted as the employer curriculum structure, not copied as construction statutory text.
| ID / basis | Topic | Lessons | Actual evidence still pending | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| T01 | 1910.132(f)(1)(i) | When PPE is necessary | P01, P02, P07 | Actual exposure/tasks, other controls and work boundaries. |
| T02 | 1910.132(f)(1)(ii) | What PPE is necessary | P02–P05 | Actual approved models, performance/selection basis and compatibility. |
| T03 | 1910.132(f)(1)(iii) | Proper donning, doffing, adjustment and wear | P05, P07 | Actual fit, model-specific sequence and observed safe proper use. |
| T04 | 1910.132(f)(1)(iv) | PPE limitations | P03–P05, P07 | Actual hazard limits, contact/change-out conditions and stop/review triggers. |
| T05 | 1910.132(f)(1)(v) | Care, maintenance, useful life and disposal | P06, P08 | Actual checks, cleaning/storage, rejection, servicing and disposal routes. |
Construction instruction and equipment basis
| ID / basis | Topic | Lessons | Actual evidence still pending | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| C01 | 1926.21(b)(2) | Recognize/avoid unsafe conditions and applicable regulations | P01–P10 | Actual work hazards, control methods, required PPE and task-specific instructions. |
| C02 | 1926.21(b)(3), where applicable | Harmful-substance handling, hygiene and personal protection | P02, P04, P07, P08 | Actual substances, safe methods, PPE performance and hygiene; specialized duties separately assessed. |
| C03 | 1926.95(a)–(c) | Suitable sanitary/reliable equipment and proper individual fit | P03–P08 | Actual equipment ratings/models, condition, fit and compatibility. |
| C04 | 1926.96, .100, .102 as applicable | Equipment-specific foot, head and eye/face provisions | P03 | Actual task equipment criteria, manufacturer instructions and specialist review as needed. |
| C05 | Employer curriculum/implementation design | Five-topic instruction, safe demonstrated use and change/deficiency checks | P01–P10; T01–T05 as employer structure | The employer adopts these processes; do not label exact 1910.132(d)/(f) processes as construction rules. |
Important process distinctions
| Area | General industry | Construction | Remaining evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| Assessment, selection, fit | 1910.132(d)(1)–(2), within (g) scope: assess, select/use, communicate, properly fit and certify assessment | 1926.95(a)–(c), actual task/equipment rules and instruction; employer adopts written task assessment | Actual workplace/tasks/exposures, other controls, model/performance selection, communication and individual fit. |
| Hazard-assessment certification | Required record identifies workplace, certifying person, date(s), and document as certification of hazard assessment | Exact 1910.132(d)(2) format is an employer record choice here, not a .95 mandate | Complete required GI fields when applicable; keep separate from employee training evidence. |
| Understanding and ability before work | 1910.132(f)(2) for covered PPE | Safe demonstrated-use check is employer policy alongside actual construction instruction | Actual employee explanation and safe proper-use demonstration with the selected equipment; gaps resolved. |
| Retraining | 1910.132(f)(3): obsolete workplace/PPE training and knowledge/use gaps | Employer change/deficiency process plus actual applicable instruction duties | Relevant instruction/practice and demonstrated understanding/ability before affected work. |
| Training documentation | Current 1910.132(f) does not prescribe old stand-alone training-certification format | No generic .95 training-certificate format is invented | Record dates/content/trainer/observed use as employer/client evidence; check other applicable record duties. |
| Sanitary/reliable condition; defects | 1910.132(a), (e) | 1926.95(a); equipment rules and employer no-defect policy | Actual inspection/rejection, compatible cleaning/storage, replacement and authorized disposition. |
| Payment and personal equipment | 1910.132(b), (h) | 1926.95(b), (d) | No-cost provision with actual limited exceptions; employee-owned adequacy/maintenance/sanitation and no blanket cost transfer. |
| Ordinary-wear replacement | Employer-paid replacement subject to stated lost/intentionally-damaged exception | Same principle in .95(d)(5) | Normal wear is not intentional damage; needed protection restored and any exception reviewed. |
| Proper individual fit | 1910.132(d)(1)(iii) | 1926.95(c)(2) expressly requires proper individual fit | Actual sizes/styles, safe movements, combined-equipment compatibility and suitable alternatives. |
| Equipment-specific criteria | 1910.133, .135, .136, .138; actual applicable criteria/equivalency | 1926.96, .100, .102 and other actual equipment provisions | Actual model/markings, current manufacturer data and regulatory basis; no automatic approval from a newer label. |
| Specialized scope | 1910.132(g) lists .133, .135, .136, .138, .140 for (d)/(f); excludes .134 and .137 from those paragraphs | Respiratory, electrical, hearing, fall, biological and other specialized duties need applicable programs | This general core does not complete specialist selection, medical/fit testing, technical qualifications or response duties. |
| Timing/hours/design | No universal annual full-course refresher or fixed course hours asserted for base general PPE | Same limitation; check actual additional requirements | Apply actual triggers and separately sourced rules/client policy. Academy 80%+critical gate/three attempts is design, not an OSHA threshold. |
| Draft LMS status | Passed = this track online knowledge | Passed = this track online knowledge | Actual employer assessment/selection, fit, instruction and demonstrated use remain pending; target-LMS/browser/pilot validation remains open. |
Six uploaded historical RAVS inputs
The 2022 questionnaire is a development input. Its training-documentation wording is kept as employer/client evidence; current legal duties are distinguished. Verify current client criteria rather than transferring historical approval.
| Input | Area | Mapping | Interpretation / evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| RAV-1 | Selection, use, care instruction and training documentation | P01–P10; five-topic plan; demonstrated-use record | Current 1910.132(f) does not prescribe the old stand-alone training-certification format; documentation is employer/client evidence. |
| RAV-2 | Retraining and demonstrated understanding/use | P01, P10; workplace demonstration/retraining | Apply 1910.132(f)(2)–(3) in its general-industry scope; construction uses actual instruction plus the employer process. |
| RAV-3 | Clean/sanitary PPE | P06, P08; care/defect record | Verify actual compatible cleaning, maintenance, storage and reuse/disposal methods. |
| RAV-4 | Hazard assessment, selection/communication and certification | P02; assessment/selection form | Use all current 1910.132(d)(2) certification fields for covered general industry; distinguish construction employer records. |
| RAV-5 | Proper individual size/fit | P05; selection/fit and demonstrated use | Apply general-industry selection and construction 1926.95(c)(2); record actual individual/combined fit. |
| RAV-6 | No defective/damaged PPE use | P06; removal/replacement record | Apply actual reliable-condition requirements and employer rejection policy; authorized repair only if permitted. |
