Hard hats replacement

[rick5280]

Does anyone know the rule for replacing hardhats due to time in the sun? I know the manufacturer date stamps the hardhat, but is there a rule for replacing them after a certain amount of time?

TIA

Hard hat, what's that? Just kidding. I think that it's probably addressed by OSHA.

5 years from the date stamped on the inside of the hat by the manufacturer.
