European foreword
This document (CEN/TR 17330:2019) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 162
“Protective clothing including hand and arm protection and lifejackets”, the secretariat of which is held
by DIN.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Regulation (EU) 2016/425 indicates that PPE placed on the market complies with the essential health
and safety requirements, and not necessarily with the various relevant EN or EN ISO standards.
Nevertheless nearly all PPE meet the essential requirements of the standards, as harmonized standards
give presumption of conformity with the requirements of the Directive.
The reader should be aware that if PPE is intended for use at a workplace, national and European
legislation intended to ensure the safety of employees usually applies. When one mentions PPE, it must
meet the requirements of Regulation (EU) 2016/425.
All annexes are informative.
Introduction
This document has the aim to serve as guideline and checklist for companies preparing their own
protective clothing program based on risk analysis.
The information in this document has been produced to assist users, employers and purchasers (or the
person who advises the employer) in making the necessary decisions regarding the selection, use, care
and maintenance of protective clothing, for employees exposed to risks related to foul weather, wind
and cold.
The purpose of this technical report is to establish a guideline for protective clothing against foul
weather, wind and cold with the goal to evaluate and reduce the safety risks and potential health risks
associated with poorly maintained, contaminated, or damaged protective clothing. This Selection, Use,
Care and Maintenance guideline (SUCAM) provides best practice, answers, criteria, and options related
to foul weather, wind and cold to the persons that are selecting or using protective clothing through its
life cycle with respect to protection.” The main topics that an employer needs to consider are
highlighted in this document. Many paragraphs of the document contain bullet-lists as examples and
options that may need to be considered.
The annexes give additional details that are necessary to describe hazards and risks, the value of the
test methods for the end user, etc.
Annex A gives details of the current EN or EN ISO Standards relating to clothing designed to provide
protection from foul weather, wind and cold.
Please be aware of and consider compatibility with other items of PPE that both protect against foul
weather, wind and cold, but consider other risks as well.
For European legislation on PPE see Regulation (EU) 2016/425 of the European Parliament and of
Council of 9 March 2016 on personal protective equipment.
