Good to know. Thanks for clarifying my post! I’ve not used one myself, and assumed they’d offer a greater degree of protection than that, esp vs a baton or deflecting something like a rubber bullet.
Not to say bump caps are bad - I have several which I wear for diy and for work on certain appropriate job sites and the like. Knowing that, I’d wear one to a low risk protest as a “better than literally nothing” option, and I’d recommend others do the same, but you need to know their limitations and when they become no longer adequate protection.
For sure- I only know them from seeing them in shops lol. In the two percent I’m not in the office, I’m in the “why are we even wearing hard hats, anything on this site will kill you” field 😆
