helmet
boots
armoured trousers
armoured jacket or leathers
sh1t hot gloves
and most importantly....
I ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS WEAR MY BACK PROTECTOR
In my job I see a lot of spinal injuries and 10 seconds putting on a back protector could be the difference between still running around with your kids or operating a motorised wheelchair !!
I don't even realise mine is on !!
What kind of work are in? I know military, medical evac?
