Appropriate engineering controls

Provide sufficient mechanical (general and/or local exhaust) to keep the airborn concentrations of dust below their respective occupational exposure limits. It is recommended to reduce the sound level in order not to exceed the standards OSHA 29CFR 1910.95, ANSI S3.19 and/or CSA Z94.2 (Canada) for hearing protection devices. In addition, the hearing protection devices must be selected based to the sound spectrum emitted in the workplace.

Individual protection measures

Eye Wear safety glasses. If risk of contact with eyes or the face, wear a face shield.

Hands Wear leather gloves.

Skin Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task being performed

and the risks involved. Wear normal work clothing covering arms and legs as required by employer code. If necessary, wear an apron or long-sleeve protective coverall suit.

Respiratory A respirator is not required in a well-ventilated area. Where the conditions in the workplace require a

respirator, it is necessary to follow a respiratory protection program. Moreover, respiratory protection equipment (RPE) must be selected, fitted, maintained and inspected in accordance with regulations and standard 29 CFR 1910.134 (OSHA), ANSI Z88.2 or CSA Z 94.11 (Canada) and approved by NIOSH/MSHA. For nuisance exposures use type N95 particle respirator.

Feet Wear safety shoes.
