| Resumen |
Recommendations are made for the prevention of adverse effects of parathion on the health of workers. Exposure should not be greater than 0.05mg/m3 determined as a time-weighted average for up to a 10h shift and a 40h week. Other recommendations relate to medical supervision, labelling, personal protective equipment, information of employees, work practices and monitoring and record keeping. The criteria on which the recommendations are based are discussed at some length under the following heads: biological effects of exposure; environmental and biological evaluation; development of a standard; research needs. Procedures for sampling and analysis of the compound in air are described in detail and useful additional information is given in appendices. |
