Exposure controls / personal protection
Control measures
Extract at emission point.
Ensure that extracted air cannot be returned to the workplace through the ventilation system.
Provide adequate ventilation.
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection :
Use a respirator with an approved filter if a risk assessment indicates this is
necessary.
Hand protection :
Where there is a risk of contact with hands, use appropriate gloves
Gloves must be inspected prior to use.
