HSE used to have publically available an internal operational guidance document ‘OM 2009/03’ that identified relevant standards for personal protective equipment (PPE) used in the workplace and provided guidance for interpreting the markings on PPE.

It used to be at http://www.hse.gov.uk/foi/internalops/oms/2009/03/ but is no longer there (I don'ty knwo how recently it was there - it's at least years since I wanted to refer to it, but today I did...).  There are still some Operational Minutes - https://www.hse.gov.uk/f...nternalops/oms/index.htm but I don't foind an equivalent repalcement document. 

Does anyone know of such a thing?  It was quite a handy cribsheet for PPE standards and working out what the cryptic markings on items meant.
