| Abstract |
Where there is a risk of workers inhaling dangerous substances, the first consideration should be to protect them by automating, enclosing, exhausting or ventilating the equipment. When this is impossible, respiratory protective equipment is essential. These recommendations describe in general terms the various types of such equipment, discuss the factors affecting its choice and make recommendations for selection, use and maintenance. |
