Face shields protect from which hazards?

• A. Flying objects
• B. Dust
• C. Flying objects, dust, splashes, drops, liquids, etc.
• D. Heat

Answer: (C)

Face shields are designed to create a barrier that protects the face from anything that can strike or contact the skin and eyes—flying objects, dust, splashes, sprays, and liquids. Because they cover the entire face, they guard against a wide range of hazards, including small projectiles and liquid splashes, which is why the option listing flying objects, dust, splashes, drops, liquids, etc. is the best fit. They don’t provide protection against heat in general, and they don’t filter vapors or gases; for those risks you’d need complementary protective gear such as goggles with a respirator, or a heat-rated shield in specific settings. This broader protection is what makes that choice the most appropriate.
