Cost Reduction Opportunities

Installing PPE vending machines may reflect a substantial saving in total spend under this indirect group. These savings come from the responsibility for the use of PPE and the shift in culture due to the fact that your workers now know they will be checked for the use of goods. 

An improvement in quality among employees as well as reduced waste and higher productivity also provide substantial savings throughout the companies production areas. Since the delivery of PPE is regulated, it is more vigilant for employees using PPE from a vending programme. They are less likely to make bad decisions and would, where possible, be more likely to reuse equipment.
