Following this guidance will help to minimize the possibility or severity of injuries or both to personnel while working with or in the vicinity of flat glass.
1.3 Nothing in this guide shall be interpreted as requiring any action that violates any statute or requirement of any federal, state, or other regulatory agency.
1.4 This guide may be used by employers and employees. The required PPE shall be evaluated on a regular basis to determine suitability.
1.5 Units—The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard.

Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the standard.
