KENYA · GUIDE 0908 · EDITION 4.2
Safety helmet retail in Kenya
Safety helmets supplied against approved specifications
A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE
Fictional PPE retail order: twelve new industrial safety helmets of an assessor-approved exact model, such as a documented JSP EVO2 vented slip-ratchet variant only where the task assessment permits it. Supply original harnesses and instructions without unauthorised paint, stickers, holes or accessory substitutions. This is equipment distribution, not issuing a site compliance certificate, assigning a universal lifespan or reselling helmets with unknown impact history.
