The requirements for PPE approval are stipulated in Factory and Machinery Act 1967, Occupational Safety and Health Act 1994 and its Regulation. Employers must ensure all PPE use in workplaces have SIRIM-DOSH certification marks. When certified to SIRIM-DOSH, it provides basis and means for these regulatory agencies in making decision and identification on approval and surveillance of products under their purview. Also, product certification is important as it provides independent assurance that the products conform consistently with standards or specifications, thus assuring customers of the product quality, safety and reliability.

Safetyware is pleased to announce that our range of ear plugs have successfully obtained SIRIM-DOSH approval starting September 2022. DOSH approval letters can be found here:
