Privacy Information

Many people are exposed to a variety of substances at work (e.g. chemicals, fumes and dusts) which can, under certain circumstances, have a harmful effect on their health. 

Thus it is important to know how to protect the health of people working with hazardous substances and also other people who may be affected by the work being carried out.

The Health and Safety Inspectorate therefore set occupational exposure limits (OELs) for hazardous substances at work. 
State of the Art portable laser photometers 
combine accuracy with flexibilty.
There are two types of OELs for hazardous substances:
 
  • Maximum Exposure Limits (MELs)
  • Occupational Exposure Limits(OELs)


  • An MEL is set for substances which may cause the most serious health effects, such as cancer and occupational asthma and for which 'safe' levels of exposure cannot be determined.

An OEL is set at a level at which (based on current scientific knowledge) there is no indication of risk to health of workers exposed.

The levels set for MEL's and OEL's are legally binding and it is therefore very important for operatives to ensure their workers are exposed to minimal health risks within the legal limits.

Dust Control Services can help your company as required under the COSHH Regulations (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health) to assess your employees inhalable dust exposure levels.
 
 

Our company is equipped with the latest portable laser photometers to measure airborne particle levels and can perform quick real time spot checks or programmed at advanced logging modes for long term sampling. Site surveys and data can be computer analysed to generate detailed graphs and reports to effectively communicate our findings.

This service is offered at a reasonable cost and backed up with recommendations and quotations for remedial dust or fume extraction equipment.
