The International Occupational Safety and Health Information Centre (CIS) now provides online access to chemical exposure limits for a number of countries. They may be accessed from the Products section of the CIS menu or by clicking on the following web link : www.ilo.org/public/english/protection/safework/cis/products/explim.htm.

For each country, a brief description of the agency responsible for the establishment of the exposure limits or the name of the document in which they are published is provided, along with an Internet link to the actual values.

It is hoped to add to the list of countries as more online sources become available. Meanwhile, if you know of further sites providing chemical exposure limits in other countries, please let CIS know.
