Webinar: The Real Cost of Hand Protection Against Mechanical Risks

What is the real cost of a hand-protection decision? Not just the price of the glove.

ATG® and ENSHPO invite you to a free 60-minute webinar on 27 October 2026, 2:00–3:00 pm CET (1:00 pm UK), online and in English.

Hand protection is often judged by purchase price, but the consequences reach much further. We’ll look at three connected costs:

🔹 The human cost: what serious hand injury can mean at work and in everyday life

🔹 The business cost: lost time, investigations, disruption and regulatory consequences

🔹 The protection cost: performance, durability, wearer acceptance, laundering, replacement and cost-in-use

One connected conversation, from consequence to decision-making to better practice:

✔ What happens when protection fails

✔ Why the wrong protection gets selected

✔ What effective protection requires

✔ What a glove really costs over its lifetime

✔ Assess → Specify → Trial → Review → Implement
