Exposure limit values

In surface technology, exposure limit values play an important role in protecting the health of workers from the potential hazards of certain substances. These limit values define the maximum permissible concentration of harmful substances in the air at the workplace over a certain period of time.

Establishing and adhering to exposure limits is crucial to making the working environment safe. This includes a comprehensive analysis of the materials and processes used in surface technology to identify potential health risks. Real-time air quality monitoring and regular measurements are necessary to ensure that concentrations of harmful substances are within established limits.

Employers in the surface technology sector are obliged to ensure that the exposure limits are complied with. This requires appropriate technical and organizational measures, including the use of personal protective equipment and the implementation of effective ventilation systems. Staff training is also essential to raise awareness of the potential hazards and respond appropriately to them. Establishing and adhering to exposure limits is essential to protect the health of workers in surface technology and to ensure a safe working environment.
