Stuff a Handyman’s Stocking With Safety Gear

For the handyman in the family, the perfect stocking stuffer might be some protective gear to wear when using power tools.

The International Safety Equipment Association has some recommendations, including:

• A first‑aid kit.

• Safety glasses or goggles.

• Earplugs or noise‑reducing earmuffs.

• Dust masks or a respirator.

• Work gloves.

• A hard hat.

While you're shopping for safety gear, buy some slip‑resistant shoes and shock‑resistant gloves for yourself to wear when you hang your outdoor holiday decorations.
