CEN/TC 158/WG 1 - Industrial safety helmets

This document specifies requirements for design, performance, test methods and markings for industrial protective helmets. The requirements apply to helmets for general use in industry.
Additional performance requirements for special applications are included to apply only when specifically claimed by the helmet manufacturer.
Industrial protective helmets are intended to reduce the risk of head injuries caused by impacts and therefore can reduce consequential effects.

This European Standard specifies physical, performance, test and marking requirements for high performance industrial helmets.
High performance industrial helmets, as specified in this European Standard, are intended to provide to the wearer protection against falling objects and off crown impacts and the consequential brain injury, skull fracture and neck injury.
This European Standard includes mandatory requirements that apply to all high performance industrial helmets and additional, optional, performance requirements that apply only where specifically claimed by the helmet manufacturer.

This European Standard specifies physical and performance requirements, methods of test and marking requirements for industrial bump caps.
Industrial bump caps are intended to provide protection to the wearer against the effects of striking his head against hard, stationary objects with sufficient severity to cause laceration or other superficial injuries. They are not intended to provide protection against the effects of falling or thrown objects, or moving or suspended loads.
NOTE   An industrial bump cap should not be confused with an industrial safety helmet, as specified in EN 397.

This European Standard specifies physical and performance requirements, methods of test and marking requirements for industrial safety helmets. The mandatory requirements apply to helmets for general use in industry. Additional optional performance requirements are included to apply only where specifically claimed by the helmet manufacturer. Industrial safety helmets are intended primarily to provide protection to the wearer against falling objects and consequential brain injury and skull fracture.
