A survey of workers in selected occupations who suffered impact injuries or chemical burns to the face showed that virtually all workers were not wearing face protection at the time of the accident. The typical face injury was caused by flying or falling blunt metal objects. Lacerations, fractures, broken teeth, and contusions were the common types of injuries. Most workers were injured while performing their normal jobs at worksites, usually a production area, and to a lesser extent, construction sites or outdoors.
