About Campaign Founders & Partners
As women increasingly enter traditionally male-populated trades, they encounter a heightened risk of workplace injuries caused by ill-fitting PPE. Recognizing this pressing issue, advocates Emily Soloby CEO of Juno Jones, DeIla Ray & Amy Roosa of The Safety Rack united in late 2023 to launch the My Body My PPE campaign. Their aim is to raise awareness about the safety hazards posed by ill-fitting PPE in the workplace.
Teaming up with the Alliance of Women’s Safety Apparel Manufacturers (AWSAM), they have devised a survey to pinpoint the root causes of these equity gaps. By understanding these challenges, we can pave the way for innovative solutions to ensure the safety and well-being of women in the workforce.
