Compliance with the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) is essential for protecting workers from occupational hazards and accidents, particularly in the textile industry. However, achieving consistent PPE compliance remains a significant challenge in many countries. This study aims to review strategies designed to enhance PPE compliance among textile industry workers.
We applied a scoping review methodology. Systematic searches were conducted across six databases: PubMed, Scopus, ProQuest, ScienceDirect, EBSCO Medline, and SAGE Journals. Five articles met the inclusion criteria for final analysis. We focused on strategy types and reported outcomes when extracting the data. We did not conduct a quality appraisal of individual studies in accordance with the scoping review methodology. The review is registered on the Open Science Framework (10.17605/OSF.IO/U3YAH).
Among the five included studies, only one employed an interventional design, demonstrating that an educational program improved knowledge, attitudes, and PPE compliance. The remaining four studies were observational in nature, identifying influential factors and recommending strategies such as training and adequate PPE provision. However, the contextual variability and observational designs limit the generalizability of the findings.
This review highlights the limited availability of interventional studies on PPE compliance in the textile sector. Nevertheless, observational studies have identified commonly recommended approaches, such as training and workplace improvements, which warrant further evaluation. Future research should prioritize intervention studies to evaluate the effectiveness of these strategies.

遵守个人防护装备(PPE)的使用对于保护工人免受职业危害和事故至关重要,尤其是在纺织行业。然而,在许多国家,实现一致的PPE合规性仍然是一项重大挑战。本研究旨在回顾旨在提高纺织行业工人PPE合规性的策略。
我们采用了范围综述方法。在六个数据库中进行了系统检索:PubMed、Scopus、ProQuest、ScienceDirect、EBSCO Medline和SAGE期刊。五篇文章符合最终分析的纳入标准。在提取数据时,我们关注策略类型和报告的结果。根据范围综述方法,我们没有对个别研究进行质量评估。该综述已在开放科学框架(10.17605/OSF.IO/U3YAH)上注册。
在纳入的五项研究中,只有一项采用了干预设计,表明一项教育计划提高了知识、态度和PPE合规性。其余四项研究本质上是观察性的,确定了影响因素并推荐了培训和提供充足PPE等策略。然而,背景变异性和观察性设计限制了研究结果的普遍性。
本综述强调了纺织部门关于PPE合规性的干预性研究有限。尽管如此,观察性研究已经确定了一些普遍推荐的方法,如培训和工作场所改善,值得进一步评估。未来的研究应优先进行干预性研究,以评估这些策略的有效性。
