Stab Proof Vests: Their Good Points And Bad Points
You may be aware that the Home Office Scientific Development Branch provides the certification for stab vest protection. We find that the most commonly used stab vest protection is KR1 (Knife Resistance Level 1), and this is often paired with SP1 (Spike Protection Level 1). Many people think that SP1 covers syringe protection, but the truth is that it doesn’t, in fact the Home Office do not have any standard for syringe protection at this time. Depending on where your staff operate you may want to consider this carefully. Many stab vests advertised for sale imply that SP1 covers syringe protection, but it does not. So if this is the case what can you do to protect your staff?
Experts recommend that you carry out a risk assessment to see what threats your staff are likely to face in their place of work. This risk assessment should cover all the dangers that your staff could face in the real world. This means the threats that are found in your local area (contact the police if you can) in addition to the threats that are specific to their duties. You may want to ask the following questions:
- Are your staff at danger from knives and sharp objects?
- Is there an additional threat from blunt trauma and syringes?
- Is there also a danger of guns?
If your risk assessment indicates that your stab vests should include protection from syringes, this is what you should do. Make sure that you ask your supplier to show you the stab vests and to demonstrate the syringe-resistant capabilities of their products. We think this is essential when you are dealing with such a crucial piece of protective clothing as a stab vest. Any honest supplier will be pleased to do this to demonstrate how effective their products are at protecting your employees.
