Occupational Safety and Health Guidelines
DISCLAIMER:
These guidelines were developed under contract using
generally accepted secondary sources. The protocol used by the contractor for
surveying these data sources was developed by the National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), the Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA), and the Department of Energy (DOE). The information
contained in these guidelines is intended for reference purposes only. None of
the agencies have conducted a comprehensive check of the information and data
contained in these sources. It provides a summary of information about
chemicals that workers may be exposed to in their workplaces. The secondary
sources used for supplements III and IV were published before 1992 and 1993,
respectively, and for the remainder of the guidelines the secondary sources
used were published before September 1996. This information may be superseded
by new developments in the field of industrial hygiene. Therefore readers are
advised to determine whether new information is available. |
Guidelines summarize pertinent information about chemicals for workers and
employers as well as for physicians, industrial hygienists, and other
occupational safety and health professionals who may need such information to
conduct effective occupational safety and health programs. Recommendations may
be superseded by new developments; readers are therefore advised to regard these
recommendations as general guidelines and to determine periodically whether new
information is available.
