Wearing the correct type of gloves can protect your hands from damage that can be caused by sharp edges or dangerous chemicals. There is no glove that can protect you from every single hazard and so a multitude of different types of gloves are available. It is imperative that you use the correct gloves for the job that you intend doing, a pair of Kevlar gloves will prevent you cuts but will offer no protection against chemicals. Often a pair of Kevlar gloves can be worn beneath another pair of gloves to offer more protection.
