This is the third year of the PPE Paint Points benchmarking study by the J. J. Keller Center for Market Insights and the first year ISEA has joined in the research effort. “Our goal, in the J. J. Keller Center for Market Insights, is to listen closely to the experiences professionals in transportation, manufacturing, construction and a multitude of other industries have every day that challenge their ability to keep their teams safe,” said Susan Baranczyk, head of corporate communications with J. J. Keller & Associates, Inc. “We share the results as widely as possible to inform and create conversation that will lead to overcoming the challenges. The unique perspective of ISEA’s staff in standards development, and their extensive membership base, can help the J. J. Keller Center for Market Insights reach more and critical audiences. So we’re excited to collaborate with ISEA on the study.”
