It is the common and minimum standard for any worker to wear personal protective equipment (PPE) like, safety shoes and a helmet while working, but, I heard that the use of a face shield also is a new addition made to protect the person from flying particles/objects/splash, etc
Now, as mentioned above, pressure systems can cause bursting/flying particles/splash, etc, and compulsory use of face shields will help the workplace personnel from exposure to hazards.
