EH40; Workplace Exposure Limits Exposure Controls The use of personal protective equipment is only one aspect of an integrated approach to the Control Of Substances Hazardous to Health. The management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1992 require employers to identify and evaluate the risks to health and to implement appropriate measures to eliminate or minimise those risks. The choice of personal protective equipment is highly dependent upon local conditions, e.g. exposure to other chemical substances and micro-organisms, thermal hazards (protection from extremes of cold and heat), electrical hazards, mechanical hazards and appropriate degree of manual dexterity required to undertake an activity. Whilst the content of this section may inform the choice of personal protective equipment used, the limitations of any information which can be provided must be fully understood, e.g. personal protective equipment chosen to protect employees from occasional splashes maybe entirely inadequate for activities involving partial or complete immersion.f the levels of oil mist or vapour in air are likely to exceed the occupational exposure standards then consideration should be given to the use of local exhaust ventilation to reduce personal exposure. The choice of personal protective equipment should only be undertaken in the light of a full risk assessment by a suitably qualified competent person ( e.g. a professionally qualified occupational hygienist). Effective protection is only achieved by correctly fitting and well maintained equipment and employers should Version No. 1.1 13/10/2008 Page 3 of 8 Rotair Pius ensure that appropriate training is given. All personal protective equipment should be regularly inspected and replaced if defective. Reference should be made to HSE's publication Methods for the Determination of

Hazardous Ingredients

(MDHS) 84 - Measurement of oi! mist from mineral oil-based metalworking fluids. Measurement of an employee's exposure to oil vapour maybe supplemented through the use of stain tubes. In the first instance, further guidance maybe obtained through HSE's publication 'COSHH - a brief guide to the regulations' (INDG 136(rev1)). Respiratory Protection At standard temperature and pressure, the Occupational Exposure Standard for oil vapour is unlikely to be exceeded. Care should be taken to keep exposures below applicable occupational exposure limits. If this cannot be achieved, use of a respirator fitted with an organic vapour cartridge combined with a particulate pre-filter should be considered. Half masks (EN 149) or valved half masks (EN 405) in combination with type A2 (EN 141) and P2/3 (EN 143) pre-filters maybe considered. Hand Protection Chemical protective gloves are made from a wide range of materials, but there is no single glove material ( or combination of materials) which gives unlimited resistance to any individual or combination of substances or preparations. The extent of the breakthrough time will be affected by a combination of factors which include permeation, penetration, degradation, use pattern ( full immersion, occasional contacts) and how the glove is stored when not in use. . Theoretical maximum levels of protection are seldom achieved in practice and the actual level of protection can be difficult to assess. Effective breakthrough time should be used with care and a margin of safety should be applied. HSE guidance on protective gloves recommends a 75% safety factor to be applied to any figures obtained in a laboratory test. Nitrile gloves may offer relatively long breakthrough times and slow permeation rates. Test data, e.g breakthrough data obtained through test standard EN374-3:1994 are available from reputable equipment suppliers. Personal hygiene is a key element of effective hand care. Gloves must only be worn on clean hands. After using gloves, hands should be washed and dried thoroughly. A non perfumed moisturiser should be applied. Eye Protection Goggles conforming to a minimum standard of EN 166 345B should be considered if there is a possibility of eye contact with the product through splashing. Higher rated eye protection must be considered for highly hazardous operations or work areas. For example, employees involved in metalworking operations such as chipping, grinding or cutting may require additional protection to avert injury from fast moving particles or broken tools. Body Protection Minimise all forms of skin contact. Overalls and shoes with oil resistant soles should be worn. Launder overalls and undergarments regularly.
