About this deal

Can hard hats be recycled? If they change hard hats, it would be prudent to replace the hard hat 5 years from the date of manufacture or 3 years from the date of issue. Yes. It is incumbent on every employer in the UK to supply their employees with the required PPE needed for their job. No. There is no expiration date for hard hats, but most companies recognise a need to replace hard hats.
