Guidelines for the selection of gloves for the workplace. NIOSH.
The selection of gloves for the workplace can be accomplished using a seven step process including consideration of alternatives to protective clothing, evaluating the nature and extent of the hazard, determining material and human performance requirements for the gloves, and cost. The primary determinant is protection of the worker. Gloves selected for protection against chemical hazards should be chosen based on permeation resistance. No single glove is available that can provide all desirable chemical and physical properties, hence, compromise is usually necessary.
