Glove Size Matters
Do your Gloves Measure Up?
Work glove safety
Stats show that simply wearing gloves of any type can prevent many hand and finger injuries. Work gloves can protect against minor site hazards like splinters and other protrusions that cause lacerations, as well as rough surfaces that leave abrasions. They can also prevent crushing blows, deep cuts, and career-ending conditions.
Choosing the right glove size
You need gloves that fit your hand. If a glove is too small, it will be uncomfortable, limit your range of motion, and wear out faster. On the other HAND, if a glove is too big can get caught on things or get pulled into machinery which is a workplace hazard. To find gloves that fit right, you need to measure your hand and follow the guidelines in the glove sizing charts below.
