Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through
ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee
has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations,
governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely
with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described
in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types
of ISO document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the
ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
ISO draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of (a)
patent(s). ISO takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed patent
rights in respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, ISO had not received notice of (a)
patent(s) which may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are cautioned that
this may not represent the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent database available at
www.iso.org/patents. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the World Trade
Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see www.iso.org/iso/foreword.html.
This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 94, Personal safety — Personal protective
equipment, Subcommittee SC 6, Eye and face protection, in collaboration with the European Committee for
Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/TC 85, Eye protective equipment, in accordance with the
Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).

Eye and face protection for occupational use —
Part 1:
General requirements
AMENDMENT 1
Scope
Add at the end of the second paragraph:
1)
"ISO 16321-4 provides requirements and guidance on protectors against biological hazards ."
and the following footnote:
1)
" In preparation."
Clause 2, Normative references
Change the date of ISO 12312-1 to 2022.
5.1
Replace the two existing paragraphs with:
"Excluding face shields and eye shields mounted on another item of PPE that restricts the superior field
of view, e.g., a protective helmet, bumpcap, headgear or hood, protectors, when in the as-worn position
and measured at the corneal apices of the headform in accordance with ISO 18526-3:2020, 6.2, shall have
a minimum unobstructed field of view in front of each eye of 30° temporally and nasally in the horizontal
meridian, and 30° superiorly and inferiorly in the vertical meridian.
Face shields and eye shields mounted on another item of PPE that restricts the superior field of view,
when in the as-worn position and measured at the corneal apices of the headform in accordance with
ISO 18526-3:2020, 6.2, shall have a minimum unobstructed field of view in front of each eye of 30° temporally
and nasally in the horizontal meridian, and
— a minimum vertical field of view in the superior direction of not less than 7°, and
— a minimum field of view in the inferior direction of 30°, and
— a minimum field of view in the vertical direction (superior and inferior combined) of 60°.
Protectors used for driving shall have a minimum unobstructed field of view in front of each eye of 60°
temporally and 30° nasally in the horizontal meridian and 30° superiorly and inferiorly in the vertical
meridian, when measured at the corneal apices of the headform in accordance with ISO 18526-3:2020, 6.2."

6.3.3.3
Replace the existing text with:
"Sunglare filters that meet the mandatory transmittance requirements given in Table 8 shall be marked
by code letter G. Sunglare filters of shade numbers 0, 1, 2 or 3 shall comply with the requirements of 6.1,
detection of signal lights, and shall be marked with G0, G1, G2 or G3. Sunglare filters of scale number G0, G1,
G2 or G3 are suitable for road use and driving.
Sunglare filters of scale number G4 comply with the requirements of 6.1 but are not suitable for road use and
driving.
Photochromic filters shall be identified and labelled with their shade numbers corresponding to their faded
state τ and darkened state τ , e.g. G0-2.
v,0 v,1
Sunglare filters that are claimed to meet the optional infrared transmittance requirements shall be marked
with the code letter GR."
6.3.3.4.2
In the second paragraph, delete code letter L and write as follows:
"When tested in accordance with ISO 18526-2:2020, 15.2, the polarizing efficiency, P, shall be ≥78 % for filter
categories G2, G3, G4 and ≥60 % for filter category G1.
NOTE 1 Filters of category G0 do not have any useful polarizing effect."
6.3.3.4.3
In the second paragraph, delete code letter L and write as follows:
".Table 8 and the detection of signal lights requirements from 6.1 (for filter number G0 to G3)…"
6.6
ISO 16321-1:2021/Amd.1:2024(en)
In the third paragraph, delete code letter GL4 and write as follows:
"Sunglare filters with the scale number G4 shall provide temporal shielding in accordance with
ISO 12312-1:2022, 11.2."
7.1.1
Replace the first paragraph with the following:
Figures 1 to 4 and Tables 11 to 14 describe the minimum areas on the headform to be protected. These
areas include both frontal and lateral protection zones. The areas indicated in Figures 1 to 4 are illustrative
only, and are not to scale, especially as the relative dimensions vary with the headform under consideration.
Refer to the data in the tables for the required dimensions.
NOTE The lateral protection has been clarified to align with that in many regional and national standards, eg, EN 166.
The dimensions of the headforms are defined in ISO 18526-4.
Replace Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4 with the following Figures:
a) Lateral area b) Frontal area c) Lateral area as seen from the
front
Replace the key with the following:
