A fixed-position face shield may be used any time eye protection is required.

A fixed-position face shield is designed for specific types of hazards, and while it does provide eye protection, it may not offer adequate protection for all scenarios where eye safety is a concern. For instance, it may not fit securely against the face, leaving gaps that can allow hazardous materials or flying debris to reach the eyes. In situations where there is a risk of splashes, impacts, or inhalation of particles, additional personal protective equipment (PPE), such as safety goggles or glasses, may be required to ensure comprehensive eye and face protection. It is important to assess the specific risks present in the work environment and select appropriate eye protection accordingly. Thus, the statement that a fixed-position face shield can be used any time eye protection is required does not hold true universally and is, therefore, false.
